options: Fluently add and subtract within 1000 using strategies and algorithms based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction.

Use place value understanding to round whole numbers to the nearest 10 or 100.

Multiply one-digit whole numbers by multiples of 10 in the range 10–90 (e.g., 9 × 80, 5 × 60) using strategies based on place value and properties of operations.
problem_activity: Narrative
This Number Talk prompts students to use place value and properties of operations to multiply single-digit numbers by multiples of ten. The strategies elicited here help students develop fluency.

Activity Synthesis
“How were you able to use
\(4\times40\)
to find the other products.” (I doubled
\(4\times40\)
to find
\(8\times40\)
. Once I knew
\(4\times 40\)
, I could count up or down by 40 to get the other products.)
Consider asking: “Why might it be helpful to first think of each expressions as multiplying a number and 4 instead of 40?” (We know many multiplication facts for 4, and that 40 is 4 tens. We can think of each problem as groups of 4 tens instead of groups of 40.)
