Multiplication and Division- Week 2

WALT: Solve story problems using only multiplication and division strategies.

In week two we used a lot of algorithms and I was challenge. This post was very late but I still remember how I struggled with this presentation. I am fine with working with a algorithm but I did struggle. Here is an example for a problem and solution:
532
x 23
1596
10640
12236
I have learnt that if the bottom number has a number in the tens unit, it will always start with a zero. Just like the zero made bold. I think that the presentations after week 2 were much better with the solving.

Problem Solving-Week 5

WALT: Multiply and divide whole numbers.

 

This week in Problem Solving I have learnt to divid and multiple in whole numbers. If you were to do this, you would have to know you multiplication and division. For example: 67 x 34 = 1828. I know the answer because I know my multiplication and I could solve it fast. So all I have to do know is to find other ways to solve question like these.
