Any of the multiplication results we get leading up to an overall multiplication result is a partial product.

Explain how to multiply a 3-digit number by a 2-digit number

Maths

In this unit pupils will learn to multiply a 3-digit by a 2-digit number They will use accurately short and long division and use a ratio chart to solve short and long division. In the future unit pupils will add, subtract, divide and multiply with integers, decimals, positive and negative values.

In the prior unit pupils will multiply a 3-digit number by a single-digit number using expanded and short multiplication. In this unit pupils will learn why the product stays the same when one factor is doubled and the other is halved and explain the effect on the product when scaling the factors by the same amount.
