LESSON 3 Multiplication Stories
Students were using computers in math class. They wrote stories and drew pictures to show how they solved some problems.
As you read the stories, think about what kind of pictures you would draw or what kind of stories you would write.
Their first problem was: How much is 7 5?
Here is the picture Jerome and Darius drew on a computer.
- How many clouds did they draw? How many strikes of lightning did they draw?
Here is the story Jerome and Darius wrote about 7 5:
Jerome and Darius found that 7 5 = 35. The answer to a multiplication problem is called the product. The product of 5 and 7 is 35.
