Mental multiplication strategies doubling strategy


Doubling is a useful strategy to use when multiplying.
To multiply a number by four, double it twice. To multiply a number by eight, double it three times.

15 4 double once = 30
13 8 double once = 26
double twice = 60 double twice = 52
double three times = 104

Mental multiplication strategies multiply by 10s, 100s and 1 000s


When we multiply by 10 we move the number one place value to the left.
When we multiply by 100 we move the number two place values to the left.
When we multiply by 1 000 we move the number three place values to the left.
Look at how this works with the number 45:

Mental multiplication strategies compensation strategy


When multiplying we can round to an easier number and then adjust.
Look how we do this with 4 29
29 is close to 30. We can do 4 30 in our heads because we know 4 3 = 12
4 30 = 120
We have to take off 4 because we used one group of 4 too many: 120 (1 4) = 116
4 29 = 116

6 60 = 360
We have to then add 2 more lots of 6: 360 + 12 = 372
6 62 = 372

When the two numbers seem too large to work with in our heads, we can halve them till we get to
a division fact we recognise. Both numbers must be even for this to work.

Division problems also become easier if you split the number to be divided into recognisable facts.
Look at the problem 144 9

Can we divide 144 into 2 multiples of 9?

We can divide it into 54 and 90. These are both easily


divided by 9. Then we add the two answers together.

Mental division strategies tests of divisibility


Divisibility tests tell us if a number can be divided evenly by another (that is with no remainders).

Use the rules to test out the numbers in the last column. The first two have been done for you:
Divisible by

Rule

Test
Is 458 divisible by 2?

A number is divisible by 2 if its even


(ends in 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8).

Yes, because it ends in an


even number.

Is 7 281 divisible by 3?
3

A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of


its digits is divisible by 3.

7 + 2 + 8 + 1 = 18
Yes, because 18 is divisible by 3.

Is 3 912 divisible by 4?
4

A number is divisible by 4 if the number


made by the last 2 digits is divisible by 4.

Yes, because 12 is divisible by 4.

Is 455 divisible by 5?
5

A number is divisible by 5 if theres


a 0 or 5 in the units place.

Yes, because 5 is in the units


place.

Is 74 160 divisible by 8?
8

A number is divisible by 8 if the last


3 digits are divisible by 8.

Yes, because 160 8 = 20

Is 6 345 divisible by 9?
9

A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of


its digits is divisible by 9.

6 + 3 + 4 + 5 = 18
Yes, because the digits add to 18
and that is divisible by 9.
18 9 = 2

Is 5 680 divisible by 10?

Contracted multiplication is one way to solve a multiplication problem.


First we use our mental strategies to estimate an easier problem:
3 150 = 450. The answer will be around 450.
We start with the units. 3 6 is 18 units. We rename this as 1 ten and 8 units.
We put 8 in the units column and carry the 1 to the tens column.
3 5 plus the carried 1 is 16 tens. We rename this as 1 hundred and 6 tens.
We put 6 in the tens column and carry the 1 to the hundreds column.
3 1 plus the carried 1 is 4 hundreds. We put 4 in the hundreds column.

There are 3 ways of expressing remainders. How we do it depends
on how wed deal with the problem in the real world. Look at:

r2

One way is to write r 2 as in the example above. We use this when we dont care about being absolutely
precise and when the remainder cant be easily broken up. An example would be sharing 527 jelly beans
among 5 people. Solve these problems expressing the remainders as r.

a Share 126 blue pencils among 4 people.

b Share 215 paper clips among 7 people.

r2
7

We can also express a remainder as a fraction. We do this when we can


easily share the remainder. For example, 19 cakes shared among 3 people
is 6 and one third each. Solve these problems expressing the remainder
as a fraction:

a Share 13 pizzas among 4 people.

Sharing dollar amounts is a good example of this. We add the cents after
the decimal point to help us. Try these:

b 
Share 27 dollars between

Using ONLY the number 2, +, , and keys on your calculator,


find as many ways as you can to create the number 13.
For example, you could make:
22 + 2 + 2 = 26 2 = 13
Record your statements on a piece of paper.
Now, compare your answers with a partners. How many did they find?
Can you supplement each others lists?
Whats the longest statement? Whats the shortest?

What
to do

Choose another number to make and see how many statements you can find or
challenge a partner to a competition. Set a time limit and see who can find the most
ways to make 15 within the time span.
Answers will vary.

Bugs investigate
Getting
ready

What
to do

Use your knowledge of multiples to help you work out how many boy bugs and
girl bugs there are in the problem below. Listing all the multiples is a strategy that
would help.

Girl bugs have 4 splodges on their backs, boy bugs have 9.


Altogether there are 48 splodges. Work out how many girl
bugs and how many boy bugs there are.
3 girl bugs.
4 boy bugs.

What to
do next

What if girl bugs have 8 splodges and boy bugs have 6 and there are 120 splodges
altogether? How many different answers can you find?
Answers will vary.
