Partial Products, Distributive Property and Multiplication

Front

What is the Distributive Property?

Back

The Distributive Property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac. It allows you to multiply a number by a sum by distributing the multiplication to each addend.

Front

Represent using the Distributive Property: 2 x 43

Back

(2 x 40) + (2 x 3)

Front

Calculate: 7(4 + 6)

Back

(7 x 4) + (7 x 6)

What does it mean to find partial products?

Back

Finding partial products involves breaking down a multiplication problem into smaller, easier parts to solve, then adding those parts together.

Front

Calculate: 6 x 7 using partial products.

Back

(6 x 7) = (6 x 5) + (6 x 2) = 30 + 12 = 42.

Front

What is a factor in multiplication?

Back

A factor is a number that is multiplied by another number to get a product.

Front

What is the product of 8 and 9?

Back

72

Front

Use the Distributive Property to solve: 3 x 25

Back

(3 x 20) + (3 x 5) = 60 + 15 = 75.
