Learning Goals In order to reach the “Adequate” level, students must demonstrate the tested skill with 85% or greater accuracy. One essential goal in the Everyday Math program is for students to be fluent with grade-appropriate basic math facts.

Lattice Method of Multiplication

1. Create a grid. Write one factor along the top, one digit per cell. 2. Draw diagonals across the cells. 3.Multiply each digit in the top factor by each digit in the side factor. Record each answer in its own cell, placing the tens digit in the upper half of the cell and the ones digit in the bottom half of the cell. 4. Add along each diagonal and record any regroupings in the next diagonal Write the other factor along the outer right side, one digit per cell.

Partial Quotients A Division Algorithm

The Partial Quotients Algorithm uses a series of “at least, but less than” estimates of how many. You might begin with multiples of 10 – they’re easiest There are at least ten 12’s in 158 (10 x 12=120), but fewer than twenty. (20 x 12 = 240) 10 (1st guess) Subtract There are more than three (3 x 12 = 36), but fewer than four (4 x 12 = 48). Record 3 as the next guess + 3 (2 nd guess) ( Sum of guesses) Subtract Since 2 is less than 12, you can stop estimating. The final result is the sum of the guesses ( = 13) plus what is left over (remainder of 2 )

Partial Sums An Addition Algorithm

Add the hundreds ( ) Add the tens (60 +80) 140 Add the ones (8 + 3) Add the partial sums ( )

An alternative subtraction algorithm

In order to subtract, the top number must be larger than the bottom number To make the top number in the ones column larger than the bottom number, borrow 1 ten. The top number become 12 and the top number in the tens column becomes To make the top number in the tens column larger than the bottom number, borrow 1 hundred. The top number in the tens column becomes 12 and the top number in the hundreds column becomes Now subtract column by column in any order 5 6 7

Partial Products Algorithm for Multiplication

Calculate 50 X X 53 Calculate 50 X 7 3, Calculate 3 X 60 Calculate 3 X 7 + Add the results 3,551 To find 67 x 53, think of 67 as and 53 as Then multiply each part of one sum by each part of the other, and add the results

Calculate 20 X X 23 Calculate 20 X Calculate 3 X 10 Calculate 3 X 4 + Add the results 322 Let’s try another one.

Calculate 30 X X 79 Calculate 70 X 8 2, Calculate 9 X 30 Calculate 9 X 8 + Add the results Do this one on your own Let’s see if you’re right.

Now do this one on your own. 43 8, – 1st guess - 4, Subtract 90 – 2 nd guess R 15 Sum of guesses Subtract – 3 rd guess – 4th guess - 86

Now, do this one on your own

Last one! This one is tricky!
