Multiplication resources

Students solve linear equations based on pizza orders and cooking times.

Students identify what happens to indices when simplifying algebraic expressions.

Students complete addition and multiplication linear equations by selecting from a range of numbers.

Students select the equations that show the commutative law.

Students complete number patterns, identifying and creating rules.

Students show how they estimate in some multiplication problems and come up with sensible estimates.

Students estimate a multiplication problem, share their methods, discuss the rounding method, and then do more estimation problems using rounding.

This practical task involves students making best estimates of sets of items and clearly demonstrating their method(s) of estimation.

Students calculate the cost of a set of books given unit prices for an individual book.

Students answer questions about the difference between a range of given times in minutes.

Students explain multiplication estimation methods used to solve word problems.

Students identify different ways that given amounts of money can be made up using a range of coins and notes.

In this practical task, students use plastic coins to work out three different ways to make the same amount of money.

Students multiply two numbers, then divide the total by 3 and by 6.

This practical task involves students making estimates of sets of items and demonstrating their method(s) of estimation.

Students select which person has correctly applied the laws of indices to some problems, and explain their choice.

Students halve and double a range of numbers.

Students estimate a division problem, share their methods, discuss the nice numbers and factors method, and then do more problems using nice numbers and factors.

Students estimate an addition problem, share their methods, discuss the averaging method, and then do more problems using averaging.

Students discuss making an interval estimate in multiplication problems (i.e., getting a lower and an upper limit for the actual answer using the front-end and rounding-up estimation methods). They then use this method on two problems.

Students perform decimal multiplication and division involving the cost of material, without the use of a calculator.

Students write algebraic expressions with indices which make equations true.

In this practical task, students use plastic coins and paper notes to work out three different ways to make the same amount of money.

Students explore multiplicative relationships by completing multiplication equations.

Students explore multiplicative relationships by completing multiplication equations using a restricted range of numbers.
