4. Alternate methods for multiplication 56 x 372

In the area model, we multiply two numbers which are broken up into their actual place
value and then multiplied with an area model for visual clarification. For instance, 56°372 becomes
300, 72, 2, * 50, 6. We write 300, 70, 2 from left to right and then 50 and 6 from up and down. We
‘multiply 300°50 and place that answer in the first box, then 70°50 place that in the next box and
then 50*2 and place that answer then we multiply 6"300, 6*70 and lastly 6*2. Once all the
numbers are multiplied you add all the sums to obtain your answer in this case it would be 20,832.

The 1st step is to multiply 6 x 2 12
2nd is to multiply 6x70 420
3rd multiply 6x 300 1800
4th multiply 50x2 100
sth multiply 50x70 3500
last multiply 50 x 300 + 15000

With partial products the numbers are multiplied by their actual place values and
then added up to obtain the solution. This alternate method of multiplication helps
students understand more about place values making it less likely to make careless
errors pertaining to place value.
Lattice MethodWith the lattice method the numbers are multiplied with in the squares for example 2 x 5
= 10 so the 1 is placed on the top left of the diagonal box and the 0 on the bottom right.
once all the numbers have been multiplied the numbers are added diagonally as seen in
the example above. if the numbers add to 10 or more in the diagonals then the number
is regrouped to the left of the diagonal.
2. The difference between repeated subtraction and partitive model of division is that in the
repeated subtraction a number is constantly taken away from the main number for example: Ms.
Jones has 108 pieces of candy and she wants to give 3 to each student. Ms. Jones can take away
3 from 108 until she no longer has any candy left. This was done 36 evenly.
Ex. 108/3
408 - 3 = 105 -3 = 102-3= 99-3 = 96-3=93-3
0 - 3= 87 - 3 = B4- 3= B1-3= 78-3 =75

For partitive model if a class has 20 students and is to be divided into 4 teams how many students
are in each team. Since we know that we have 4 teams we can place one student in each team
until there are no more students left. The end result was § students in each team.ce

A3. 28/ 10584
In the intermediate division algorithm you can make an estimate of how much the number 28 will
divide into 10,584. The first estimate was 28 x 300 = 8,400. 8,400 was subtracted from 10,584 =
2184. The next estimate was 28 x 60 = 1680. 1680 was subtracted from 2184 = 504. The next
estimate was 28 x 15 = 420. 420 - 504 = 84, The last estimate was 26 x 3 = 84. 84-84 =0
Allthe estimates are then added together to get the tolal of 378 as a result.
