Multiplication and Division.

WALT: Solve multiplication problems by rounding and compensating.

6 x 43 =
6 x 40 = 240
6 x 3 = 18
240 + 18 = 258

What did I learn to do ?
I learnt that if you have a big number that is like this
5 x 120 =
break it up into a smaller number
5 x 100 = 500
5 x 20 = 100
5 x 0 = 0
then you add them all together
500 + 100 = 600
and that is the answer.

My next step is to solve problems using simple cube numbers and can build what they represent and make a table to show the number pattern.
