Lesson 10
Ten Times As Much
Lesson Purpose
The purpose of this lesson is to write equations to represent the relationship between the value of digits in multi-digit numbers.
Lesson Narrative
In the previous lesson, students wrote multi-digit numbers in expanded form to highlight the value of each digit. They also described the “ten times” relationship between the value of a digit in one place and the value of the same digit in the place to its right. In this lesson, students use multiplication and division equations to represent this relationship.
