Partial-Products Multiplication Partial-products multiplication involves: • Using the distributive property; • Thinking about expanded notation; • Using extended facts to calculate partial products; and • Adding partial products to find the final answer. Everyday Mathematics
Partial-Products Multiplication Solve: 58 × 37 We begin by thinking about each number in expanded notation. 58 = 50 + 8 37 = 30 + 7 The key idea in partial products multiplication is to multiply each part of 58 by each part of 37. 50 × 30 50 × 7 • 8 × 30 • 8 × 7 Everyday Mathematics
Partial-Products Multiplication Solve: 58 × 37 58 × 37 We can find the partial product in any order. Here we start with 50 × 30. We add the partial productstogether to find the answer. 50 × 30 50 × 7 8 × 30 8 × 7 • Multiply: 1,500 350 240 + 56 2,146 Everyday Mathematics
Partial-Products Multiplication When children use partial-products they practice a variety of skills related to number sense and algebraic reasoning. For example: • Identifying the place value of digits; • Thinking about numbers in expanded notation; • Applying the distributive property; • Using multiplication fact extensions such as 50 × 30; and • Adding to find the product. If children work from left to right, which is generally their inclination, they begin the problem solving process with a reasonable estimate of what the final answer should be. Everyday Mathematics
