Multiplication Monday

We had been learning to use repeated addition and arrays to solve multiplication problems. Try these problems

Finlay has six packets of stickers. There are five stickers in each packet. Make or draw an array to show the problem.

How many stickers does he have altogether?

Isla plants some bulbs in the garden. Work out how many bulbs she has planted for each example. You can draw or make an array. Try to write your answer as a repeated addition sentence and as a multiplication sentence.

for example

3 rows of 2  is the same as 2+2+2   and 3×2 So she’s planted 6 bulbs.

4 rows of 10                   5 rows of 5                     2 rows of 3

Finally can you work out how many bulbs she’s planted altogether? You can include my example in your calculation.
