FAQ
What is the shortcut for multiplying a 1-digit number by a whole ten?⌄
Multiply the single-digit number by the tens digit, then attach a zero — for example, 7 × 40 = 7 × 4 = 28, so 7 × 40 = 280 — this uses basic fact knowledge and place value simultaneously.
How does multiplying by whole tens connect to place value understanding?⌄
Students see that multiplying by a ten shifts the product one place to the left (appending a zero), demonstrating that multiplication by 10 is equivalent to moving up one place value level.
How do these problems prepare students for multi-digit multiplication?⌄
Multiplying by whole tens is the first step in many multi-digit strategies (like the partial-products method and the standard algorithm), making fluency with this skill essential for later computation work.
