2. Grid method multiplication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_method_multiplication

   The grid method (also known as the box method) of multiplication is an introductory approach to multi-digit multiplication calculations that involve numbers larger than ten. Because it is often taught in mathematics education at the level of primary school or elementary school, this algorithm is sometimes called the grammar school method. [1]

3. Distributive property - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributive_property

   In mathematics, the distributive property of binary operations is a generalization of the distributive law, which asserts that the equality (+) = + is always true in elementary algebra. For example, in elementary arithmetic , one has 2 ⋅ ( 1 + 3 ) = ( 2 ⋅ 1 ) + ( 2 ⋅ 3 ) . {\displaystyle 2\cdot (1+3)=(2\cdot 1)+(2\cdot 3).}

4. Investigations in Numbers, Data, and Space - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Investigations_in_Numbers...

   Investigations was developed between 1990 and 1998. It was just one of a number of reform mathematics curricula initially funded by a National Science Foundation grant. The goals of the project raised opposition to the curriculum from critics (both parents and mathematics teachers) who objected to the emphasis on conceptual learning instead of instruction in more recognized specific methods ...

5. Multiplication - Wikipedia

   Multiplication can also be thought of as scaling. Here, 2 is being multiplied by 3 using scaling, giving 6 as a result. Animation for the multiplication 2 × 3 = 6 4 × 5 = 20. The large rectangle is made up of 20 squares, each 1 unit by 1 unit. Area of a cloth 4.5m × 2.5m = 11.25m 2; 4 ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ × 2 ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ = 11 ⁠ 1 / 4 ⁠

6. Commutative property - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commutative_property

   Perhaps most familiar as a property of arithmetic, e.g. "3 + 4 = 4 + 3" or "2 × 5 = 5 × 2", the property can also be used in more advanced settings. The name is needed because there are operations, such as division and subtraction , that do not have it (for example, "3 − 5 ≠ 5 − 3" ); such operations are not commutative, and so are ...

7. Lattice multiplication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_multiplication

   For example, to multiply 5.8 by 2.13, the process is the same as to multiply 58 by 213 as described in the preceding section. To find the position of the decimal point in the final answer, one can draw a vertical line from the decimal point in 5.8, and a horizontal line from the decimal point in 2.13. (See picture for Step 4.)
