What is multi-digit multiplication?

Back

Multi-digit multiplication is the process of multiplying numbers that have two or more digits, using methods such as the standard algorithm, area model, or partial products.

What is the area model in multiplication?

Back

The area model is a visual representation of multiplication that breaks down numbers into their place values, allowing for easier calculation of products by adding partial products.

Front

What are partial products?

Back

Partial products are the results obtained from multiplying each digit of one number by each digit of another number, before adding them together to get the final product.

How do you estimate a product?

Back

To estimate a product, round the numbers to the nearest ten, hundred, or other convenient value, then multiply the rounded numbers.
