Area Model & Standard Algorithm

Front

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 and represents the product as the area of rectangles.

Front

What is the Standard Algorithm for multiplication?

Back

The Standard Algorithm is a step-by-step method for multiplying numbers, where you multiply each digit of one number by each digit of the other number and then add the results.

Front

What does the Distributive Property state?

Back

The Distributive Property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac, meaning you can distribute a number across a sum.

How do you find the product of 35 and 17 using the Standard Algorithm?

Back

Multiply 35 by 17: 35 x 17 = 595.

Front

What is the first step in the Standard Algorithm for multiplying 35 by 17?

Back

The first step is to multiply 5 (from 35) by 7 (from 17), which equals 35.

Front

What is the total number of granola bars in 35 boxes if each box contains 24 bars?

Back

Total granola bars = 35 x 24 = 840.

Front

What is a factor?

Back

A factor is a number that divides another number without leaving a remainder.

Front

What is the product of 6 and 3?

Back

The product of 6 and 3 is 18.

Front

How can you use the Area Model to multiply 24 by 30?

Back

Break down 24 into 20 and 4, and 30 into 30. Then calculate (20 x 30) + (4 x 30) = 600 + 120 = 720.

Front

What is the purpose of using the Area Model?

Back

The Area Model helps visualize multiplication and understand how numbers are broken down into parts.
