Exploring Partial Products in Multiplication

What is the first step in using the area model for multiplication?

• Draw a rectangle

• Expand the numbers

• Multiply the numbers directly

• Add the partial products

In the partial products method, what should you do after expanding the number?

• Draw a rectangle

• Distribute the multiplier

• Add the numbers

• Rewrite the problem

Why is it important to line up place values in the partial products method?

• To use fewer steps

• To make multiplication easier

• To avoid rewriting partial products

• To make the problem look neat

What is the final step in both the area model and partial products method?

• Add the partial products

• Distribute the multiplier

• Expand the numbers

• Draw a rectangle
