Students will model and represent various multiplicative comparison scenarios with the unknown in any position. Students will use concrete manipulatives, representations, and equations to model multiplicative comparison scenarios.

B.E.S.T. Benchmarks:

  • MA.4.AR.1.1 Solve real-world problems involving multiplication and division of whole numbers including problems in which remainders must be interpreted within the context. 
  • MA.4.AR.2.2 Given a mathematical or real-world context, write an equation involving multiplication or division to determine the unknown whole number with the unknown in any position. (limited to factors within 12 and related division facts) 
  • MA.4.NSO.2.1 Recall multiplication facts with factors up to 12 and related division facts with automaticity. 

Overarching Key Concepts:

  • Fluency: Multiply by 3
  • Represent and solve multiplicative comparison problems
