What does the hundredths model represent in multiplication?

Back

The hundredths model visually represents the multiplication of two decimal numbers by showing the shaded area as the product.

Front

Which equation represents the shaded parts of a hundredths model? 0.06 × 0.05 = 0.003, 0.06 × 0.05 = 0.3, 0.6 × 0.5 = 0.3, 0.60 × 0.50 = 0.03.

Back

0.6 × 0.5 = 0.3.

Front

How do you determine the second least amount in a set of measurements?

Back

To find the second least amount, you must first order the measurements from least to greatest and then identify the second number in that ordered list.

Front

If Tank Y has the second least amount of water, which could be its measurement? 10.005 gallons, 10.015 gallons, 10.09 gallons, 10.04 gallons.

Back

10.015 gallons could be the amount of water in Tank Y.

Front

What is the order of operations in mathematics?

Back

The order of operations is a set of rules that determines the sequence in which calculations are performed: Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right).

Front

Calculate the value of the expression: (8 × 4 + 2) ÷ 2.

Back

The value is 17.

Front
