Understanding Multiplication Use the Base 4 blocks to find these products. 214 334 ×134×234
Find the following products in Alphabitia: AB CD ×B0 ×DC
Find the following products in Base 8: 258 578 ×138×648
Multiplication terms multiplier: 4 multiplicand: 3 product: 12 factors: 4 and 3 are factors of 12 multiple: 12 is a multiple of 4 12 is a multiple of 3
Multiplication Models • Repeated addition • Area • Cartesian product a1 a2 a3
Units • For addition and subtraction 3 hours plus 5 miles • For multiplication 8 miles per hour for 5 hours: how many miles? 8 mi • 5 hr = 40 mi hr
Multiplication Properties • Identity • Zero • Commutative • Associative
Multiplication Properties continued: Distributive property-- combines multiplication and addition or subtraction
Expanded vs compacted Expanded Compacted
Multiplication-the area model • How could Jemea’s strategy be represented using the rectangular area model?
