Learn on PengiEureka Math, Grade 4Chapter 11: Multiplication of up to Four Digits by Single-Digit Numbers

Lesson 2: Extend the use of place value disks to represent three- and four-digit by one-digit multiplication.

In this Grade 4 Eureka Math lesson, students extend their use of place value disks to solve three- and four-digit by one-digit multiplication problems, such as 2 × 324, by decomposing each factor into hundreds, tens, and ones. Students record partial products vertically and connect the disk representations to standard multiplication equations. This lesson builds directly on two-digit multiplication skills and reinforces expanded form and place value concepts.

Section 1

Writing Numbers in Expanded Form

Property

A multi-digit number can be written in expanded form by expressing it as the sum of the values of its digits.
For example, a four-digit number can be written as:

Thousands+Hundreds+Tens+OnesThousands + Hundreds + Tens + Ones

Examples

Section 2

Calculating Products Using the Partial Products Algorithm

Property

The partial products algorithm uses the distributive property to solve multiplication.
A multi-digit number is broken into the sum of its place values (expanded form), and each part is multiplied separately before adding the results.

a×(b+c+d)=(a×b)+(a×c)+(a×d)a \times (b + c + d) = (a \times b) + (a \times c) + (a \times d)
