Multiply by Ten, Compare, Solve
Created by Shaunak Ghosh
You will learn how place value grows by tens, and how that makes ×10 patterns easy up to thousands. Then you will read multiplication equations as “times as many,” write matching equations, and solve story problems using multiplication or division.
Requirements
- Count and read numbers up to 1,000
- Know basic multiplication as equal groups
- Add and subtract within 100
What you'll learn
- Explain that a digit’s value is ten times the digit to its right
- Use ×10 patterns to extend numbers up to thousands
- Translate “times as many” comparison language into multiplication equations

1
Place value is ten times bigger
Learn the place value rule: in a whole number, a digit is 10 times the value of the digit to its right. Example: in 3,542, the 5 hundreds is 10 times the 4 tens.

2
Extend ×10 patterns to thousands
Use the ×10 place-value pattern to recognize and extend multiplication and division patterns up to thousands. Example: if 7 × 10 = 70, then 70 × 10 = 700, and 700 ÷ 70 = 10.

3
Read multiplication equations as comparisons
Learn that a multiplication equation can mean “times as many.” Example: 35 = 5 × 7 means 35 is 5 times as many as 7 (and also 7 times as many as 5).

4
Solve times-as-many word problems
Solve word problems with “times as many” using multiplication or division. Learn to tell the difference between multiplicative comparison (“times”) and additive comparison (“more than”).
