40 foot tree = 12 foot shadow
24 foot tree = x foot shadow

(Cross Multiply)

40 × x = 12 × 24
x = 288 / 40
x = 7.2 foot

24 foot tree casts 7.2 foot shadow

When you are looking for this, the best way to do this is to divide 28 by 7. This will give you 4.
The other way to do this is to list the factors of 28, which are 1,2,4,7,14,28, and you will then be able to see which two are paired.
In this case, x is 4.

What is 80 x 40? Make 5 paragraphs stating the answer.
MariettaO [177]
80 x 40 is 320. I know 80 x 40 is 320 because 80 + 80 + 80 + 80 is 320. I also know 80 x 40 is 320 because 8 x 4 is 36. If you pretend the 0 is not there it’s 8 x 4. I know you can get the answer quicker that way because it’s just times tables.
