Math - Ones Multiplication is repeated addition so: 1x4=1+1+1+1= 4 Any number times one is always itself! 9. Math - Twos Multiplication is repeated addition so: 2x4=4+4=8 Any number times two is the number doubled! 2 x 4 would be 4 + 4 or 8 2 x 6 would be 6 + 6 or 12 10. Math - FivesIf you are multiplying five times an even number, take half ofthe number and put a zero after itFor example 5 x 6 (6 is even) take half of 6 (30) add a zero - 40If you are multiplying five times an odd number, subtract 1from the number and halve the numberFor example 5 x 7 (7 is odd) Subtract one from 7 (6) take half of 6 (3) Add a five - 35 11. Math - NinesThis is the one less = nine methodSubtract one from the number you are multiplying by. 9 x 5 (one less than 5 is 4)The two numbers that make up the answer will equal 9. The last number in the answer is 5 4+5=9Here is another example 9x8 One less than 8 is 7. So the first number in the answer is 7 7+2=9 So the second number in the answer is 2. 12. Math - Multiply Whole Numbers by Decimals (page 70)Find 9 x 0.7Step 1: Multiply as with whole0.7numbers.x9Step 2: Count the total numberof digits after the decimal pointin each factor. 0.7digitsStep 3: Add the digits. Count in x9digitsthat many places from the rightin the product.Th ink :cfroom untthine1rig digi httThe answer is 6.3 13. Math - Multiply Whole Numbers by Decimals (page 70)You can use patterns to multiply 1x12.5=12.5decimals by multiples of 10. 10x12.5=125 100x12.5=1,250Think: the number of zeros in 1,000x12.5=12,500the multiple of 10 tells you howmany places to move the decimalpoint to the right.So 12.5 x 1,000 equals 12,500. 14.
