Maths strategy

W.A.L.T. Solve multiplication problems using our xtables and partitioning numbers.

Miss Stone has ordered a hug box of lollies for the class. The box contains 12 packets of lollies. In each packet there are 14 lollies. How many lollies could Miss Stone have altogether?
My strategy:
2 + 10= 12
10 x 10 = 100
10 x 4 = 40
100 + 40 = 140
2 x 10 = 20
2 x 4 = 8
20 + 8 = 28
140 + 28 = 168
12 x 14 = 168
