Chapter at a Glance

• Skip counting along a path gives the multiples of a number; numbers on two animals’ paths are common multiples.
• Things set in equal rows and columns make an array, and an array is a picture of a multiplication statement.
• In 12 × 3 = 36, 12 is the number of groups (multiplier), 3 is the group size (multiplicand) and 36 is the product.
• To multiply a big number, split it into hundreds, tens and ones, multiply each part and add: 125 × 8 = 800 + 160 + 40 = 1000.
• Ten-times and hundred-times just add zeros: 6 × 8 = 48, so 60 × 8 = 480 and 600 × 8 = 4800.
• Division is taking away equal groups until nothing (or only a small remainder) is left, as in 58 ÷ 3 = 19 with 1 wheel left over.
