Maths

There are 8 pencils in a box. AJ has 15 boxes of pencils. How many pencils are altogether?

15 x 8 = ??

10 x 8 = 80

5 x 8 = 40

80 + 40 = 120

To solve this problem, I used place value partitioning. I multiplied 10 by 8 and I got 80 as the answer. Then, I multiplied 5 by 8 and I got 40 as their answer. Then I added 80 and 40 and I got 120. So AJ has 120 pencils altogether.

Today I took part in the Maths Week Challenge. I answered all the questions correctly.

Solving easy problems

W.A.L.T : solve easy Addition Problems.

583 + 246 = 829

to solve this equation, you can start in the hundred columns.

500 + 200 = 700
80  + 40 = 120
3 + 6 = 9
and of course, add it all up

700 + 120 + 9 = 829

That is how you work out easy addition problems.
