Below are sample questions representative of the exercises included on this worksheet and related 3.49 Writing Multiplication Equations from Visual Models skill assessments:

Problem 1Difficulty: Mastery

At a grocery aisle, the marbles are grouped carefully in a grid. Model: Left part: 5 rows of 8 -> ▲▲▲▲▲▲▲▲; Right part: 5 rows of 4 -> ▲▲▲▲. (Both parts are side-by-side.) Prompt: Which equation matches the full model? Write it as rows x (left columns + right columns).

A(8+4) × 5 (8+4 rows, 5 in each row)

B5 × (8+3) (5 rows, 8 columns + 3 columns)

C5 × (8+4) (5 rows, 8 columns + 4 columns)

D6 × (8+4) (6 rows, 8 columns + 4 columns)

Solution & Explanation:The two parts have the same 5 rows. The columns add: 8+4=12. So the whole model is 5 rows by 12 columns, which is 5 × (8+4).

Problem 2Difficulty: Mastery

At a lunchroom, the apples are set out in rows in each case. Model: Set 1: 3 groups of 10 -> [●●●●●●●●●●]; Set 2: 6 groups of 10 -> [●●●●●●●●●●]. (Combine both sets.) Prompt: Select the equation that represents the whole picture as a single multiplication equation. Write it as (groups in set 1 + groups in set 2) x in each group.

A10 × (3+6) (10 groups, 3+6 in each group)

B(3+6) × 9 (3 groups + 6 groups, 9 in each group)

C(3+6) × 10 (3 groups + 6 groups, 10 in each group)

D(3+7) × 10 (3 groups + 7 groups, 10 in each group)

Solution & Explanation:There are 3 groups and 6 more groups, all with 10 each. Add groups: 3+6=9. So the equation is (3+6) × 10.

Problem 3Difficulty: Mastery

At a train station, the apples are sorted for a game in each jar. Model: Top part: 4 rows of 8 -> ■■■■■■■■; Bottom part: 5 rows of 8 -> ■■■■■■■■. (Parts are stacked.) Prompt: Choose the equation for the whole model using one multiplication expression. Write it as (top rows + bottom rows) x columns.

A(4+5) × 8 (4 rows + 5 rows, 8 in each row)

B8 × (4+5) (8 rows, 4+5 in each row)

C(4+5) × 9 (4 rows + 5 rows, 9 in each row)

D(4+6) × 8 (4 rows + 6 rows, 8 in each row)

Solution & Explanation:Both parts have 8 in each row. Add the rows: 4+5=9. So the whole model is (4+5) rows of 8, which is (4+5) × 8.
