    1. \(46\)
    2. \(64\)
    3. \(240\)
    4. \(2400\)

  4. Quinn calculated \(7\times30\) and got \(710\). What error did Quinn make?

    1. Quinn forgot to multiply at all.
    2. Quinn wrote the zero in the wrong place.
    3. Quinn multiplied correctly but added an extra zero.
    4. Quinn wrote down the digits \(7\) and \(30\) instead of multiplying them.

Answer key and explanations

  1. C. \(240\)

    Multiply \(6\times4=24\), then multiply by \(10\) to get \(240\): \(6\times40 = 24\times10 = 240\). You decompose \(40\) as \(4\times10\), then use the associative property.

  2. D. \(30\)

    Skip count by \(10\)s: \(10, 20, 30\). There are \(3\) groups of \(10\) stars, so \(3\times10=30\) stars total.

  3. C. \(10+10+10+10+10\)

    \(5\times10\) means \(5\) groups of \(10\), which is the same as adding \(10\) five times: \(10+10+10+10+10=50\). This shows that multiplication is repeated addition.

  4. D. Quinn wrote down the digits \(7\) and \(30\) instead of multiplying them.

    \(7\times30=210\) (multiply \(7\times3=21\), then multiply by \(10\)). Quinn wrote \(7\) and \(30\) together as \(730\) instead. The correct answer is \(210\).

  5. C. \(100\)

    \(2\) rows of \(50\) squares \(= 2\times50=100\) squares. Multiply \(2\times5=10\), then multiply by \(10\) to get \(100\).

  6. D. \((4\times2) \times 10 = 8 \times 10 = 80\)

    \(4\times20 = 4\times(2\times10) = (4\times2)\times10 = 8\times10 = 80\). This uses associative property: you break \(20\) into \(2\times10\), multiply the single digits first, then multiply by \(10\).

  7. D. \(80\)

    \(8\) groups of \(10 = 8 \times 10 = 80\) stickers. The place-value chart shows 8 tens and 0 ones, which equals 80.

  8. D. \(10\); multiply

    \(60 = 6 \times 10\). The number bond shows that \(60\) can be decomposed into \(6\) and another factor; that factor is \(10\). You multiply \(6\times10\) to get \(60\).
