 |
What’s the
pattern? |
 |
 |
 |
|
a. Use
a calculator to find each product. |
 |
3
x 5
30 x 5
300 x 5
|
3 x 50
30 x 50
300 x 50 |
3 x 500
30 x 500
300 x 500 |
|
 |
b.
Find the following products without
a calculator.
Then check your answers with a calculator. |
| 5
x 8, 50 x 8, 50 x 80, 500 x 8, 500 x 80, 500 x 800 |
| c.
Describe a rule that tells how to
find each product. |
|
 |

 |
 |
How can properties
help you multiply more easily? |
 |
| Commutative Property of Multiplication |
 |
Associative Property of
Multiplication |
 |
You can change the order of
the factors. |
| 34 x
8 = 8 x 34 |
|
You can change the grouping
of
factors. |
| (7 x
25) x 4 = 7 x (25 x 4) |
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
| Find 20 x 5 x 6. |
Using the Associative
Property,
you can think: |
(20
x 5) x 6 = 100 x 6 = 600 OR
20 x (5 x 6) = 20 x 30 = 600. |
|
 |
| Find 2 x
70 x 50. |
Use
the properties to change the
order and the groupings. |
| 2
x 70 x 50 |
= 2 x (70
x 50)
= 2 x (50 x 70)
= (2 x 50) x 70
= 100 x 70
= 7,000 |
