There are different ways you can do Multiplication, there is the area model , partial
products and the lattice method. We will explore these different methods below.
Area Model
In the Area Model for multiplication 56 x 372, we draw a basic rectangle, with the width and
height of the shape labeled with the corresponding numerals. For organization sake, we want to
put the bigger number on top and the smaller number on the side.
First we want to multiply the 300 and the 50 and then Now you can add up all the numbers you
put our answer under the 300. Then we want to multiply got to get the final answer.
the 70 and 50 and put the number below the 70 and then 11
we want to multiply the 2 and the 50. Then we move on 15,000
to the 300 and the 6 putting the answer in the rectangle in 3,500
the bottom left. We then move on to the 70 and the 6 , 100
putting our answer in the middle small rectangle on the 1,800
bottom. Finally, we multiply the 2 and the 6, putting our 420
answer in the bottom right rectangle. + 12
20,832
Partial Products
When we multiply in partial product, we multiply in each place value, and record the result for
each place on its own line. For example 372x56 is 6x2, 6x70, 6x300, 50x2, 50x70, 500x300.
Then all the numbers are added and we should get the final sum of 20832.

Lattice Method
Lattice Algorithm for Multiplication in 56 x 372. For the sake of organization we will put the
372 on top and the 56 on the bottom. See diagram below for step by step process. Each product
is written so that the digits are split across the diagonal. Then the digits along each diagonal are
added. The first set is consider the ones spot and the next over (to the left) is the tens spot, then

it.
There are also different ways you can do Division, there is division by repeated
subtraction, and the partitive model of division, and intermediate division. We will explore these
Repeated subtraction is when you keep subtracting the same number from a number. For
example, Hazel has lollipops for her friends. She has 24 of them and she wants to give 4 to each
Answer:
It's repeated subtraction because you already know how much you are subtracting per friend,
which is 4. So, you keep subtracting 4 until you get to zero and then you will figure out how
Partitive Model:
Partitive model is when you keep subtracting 1 and keep going until you get zero. For example,
Hazel has 6 friends, she want to share lollipops with. She only has 24 lollipops. How many
Answer:
The reason it's partitive model is because you don't know how many lollipops each friend is
getting. You have to keep subtracting one and adding it to one friend until you run out of
lollipops, and you can figure out how many lollipops each friend got. The result is four lollipops
per friend.
Intermediate Division
Intermediate division algorithm example 10584 divide by 28.
