Multiplication is a simple way of adding
For example 6x8 is the same as 8+8+8+8+8+8

Any number multiplied by 1 is itself E.g 4x1 = 4

Multiplying by 2 is just doubling

Multiplying by 10 is adding a 0 to the original number

If it is a big number that you do not know how to multiply mentally split it up
E.g 17x13
Split 13 into 10 and 3
17x10= 170
17x3= 51
Then add these numbers
221

If you ever get stuck, use the long method, add them instead, you will get to the right answer but it will take longer

Dividing is not as simple
Like multiplication dividing by one will leave you with the same answer

Dividing by two means you half the number, which may give you a decimal

Bigger numbers are trickier, and you may be allowed to use a calculator for numbers
Below are a number of links, these websites will teach you how to improve your multiplication and division skills:

Multiplication:
It is like addition. For example, 1+1+1+1 is the same thing as 1 x 4, but multiplying is faster.

Division: 
It is the opposite of multiplication. For example, 12/4=__. All you need to know is what times 4 equals 12, and the answer to that is 3. So the answer is 3.

blanca buys 2 gallons of green paint. She uses 5 quarts to paint her front and 1/2 quart to paint the front porch swing
sukhopar [10]

Paint unused is 0.625 gallons.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Quantity of green paint bought = 2 gallons

Now we have to convert gallons to quarts using the conversion factor

1 gallon = 4 quarts

2 gallons = 2 × 4 quarts = 8 quarts

Usage of paint her front = 5 quarts

Usage of paint the front porch swing = $\frac{1}{2} quart = 0.5 quart

So used paint = 5 + 0.5 = 5.5 quarts

To find the unused paint, we have to subtract the used quantity from already bought.

Unused paint = 8 quarts - (5.5 quarts) = 2.5 quarts.

So Unused green paint is 2.5 quarts or 0.625 gallons.

quadrilateral WXYZ is reflected across the line y=x to create quadrilateral W’X’Y’Z'. What are the coordinates of quadrilateral
rosijanka [135]

Explanation

We are required to determine the coordinates of W’X’Y’Z' when WXYZ is reflected across the line y = x.

This is achieved thus:

From the image, we can deduce the following:

\begin{gathered} W(-7,3) \\ X(-5,6) \\ Y(-3,7) \\ Z(-2,3) \end{gathered}

We know that the following reflection rules exist:

Therefore, we have:

\begin{gathered} (x,y)\to(y,x) \\ W(-7,3)\to W^{\prime}(3,-7) \\ X(-5,6)\to X^{\prime}(6,-5) \\ Y(-3,7)\to Y^{\prime}(7,-3) \\ Z(-2,3)\to Z^{\prime}(3,-2) \end{gathered}

Hence, the answers are:

\begin{gathered} \begin{equation*} W^{\prime}(3,-7) \end{equation*} \\ \begin{equation*} X^{\prime}(6,-5) \end{equation*} \\ \begin{equation*} Y^{\prime}(7,-3) \end{equation*} \\ \begin{equation*} Z^{\prime}(3,-2) \end{equation*} \end{gathered}

This is shown in the graph bwlow for further undertanding:
