Solving Multistep Multiplication Word Problems

This video tutorial covers solving multi-step word problems using multiplication of multi-digit numbers. It begins with a problem about calculating the daily and yearly food consumption of lions in a zoo, using a bar model and the standard algorithm. The second problem involves determining the annual rent for office space, requiring multiplication of monthly costs by the number of months and the size of the office. The tutorial emphasizes careful step-by-step problem-solving and the importance of setting up problems correctly.
