we did 125×34 and got the sum of 4,150.
#know it all
Great job maybe you can go higher!!!!
we got 147 x 68 = 9996
I also did 147 x 68 and got 9996. I found out a better way to go over 9996. It’s 769 x 13 = 9997.
I love the strategic possibilities here! Can you hit 10,000 exactly? 9,999?
I did 455 x 19 beacuse i thought it would be a good combation #8645 yippe
I did 769×13=9997, because it was so close to 10,000
I tried going higher but I got 10,060 and that’s to high
I did that by multiplying 769 x 14
We used 456 x 21 and the answer is 9,576.
My second group of students chose the numbers 125 x 79 and got a product of 9,875.
9876 x 1
You all shall be cursed

I did the way the answer said (of corse checking my work after not cheating)
I did 487×19 which got me 9253
769 x 13 = 9,997
We got 217 x 46 and got 9,982. We enjoyed the comments that pertained to math and showed us we could get closer by doing 769 x 13! Lots of productive struggle this morning!
