@howie_hua Double/halve. 5(12)=60

[Michelle Giles (she/they) @MGMath4All]

@howie_hua I would start with 625-75 but thinking in $. $6.25-$0.75. Removing 3 quarters from $6.25 takes me to $5.50. However, this was subtracting three cents more than needed so I add the three cents back and remove the $… 625-72=553.

@howie_hua @KarenCampe Double and halve: 30(11). Factor and commute: 3(11)(10)=330.

@howie_hua @Wipebook Second thought, would be much easier in feet! 2 ft by 3 ft is 6 square feet. (Could then convert back to square inches if pressed using same method as previously for 6(144) since 144 square inches per square foot.)

[Michelle Giles (she/they) @MGMath4All]

@howie_hua @Wipebook First, I would double and half… 12 by 72; 6 by 144. Then, I would switch to distributive property/area model adding largest areas first 600+240+24 = 840+24=864. Therefore 24”by36” is 864 square inches.

@howie_hua Quincunx plus 2

@pwharris 351+9=360
360/9=40 (36 tens/9 = 4 tens)
351/9=(360-9)/9=360/9-9/9=40-1=39

@howie_hua Not “in the classroom” but majorly affects how I show up in the classroom: Exercising before school every day, especially when I wake up “not feeling lit.” Also: Learning ro recognize the difference between “not feeling it” and recovery day needed.

@fawnpnguyen Yes. Though I likely would have written the expression as 3+2(n-1)+2, for n=step number.

@howie_hua 20 cookies cost $36 , divide by 10 and 2 cookies cost $3.60. Double double and 4 cookies cost $7.20. Add 2 cookies to 4 cookies so 6 cookies cost $3.60+$$7.20=$10.80.

[Michelle Giles (she/they) @MGMath4All]

@pwharris 75=3(25) so 75(24)=(25)(3)(24)
4 quarters=$1 so 24 quarters=$6
3 times 24 quarters = 3($6)=$18
3(25)(24)=1800

@howie_hua I saw a butterfly: each wing has two diagonals of 3 tapering to a diagonal of 2. 1 wing: 3*2+2=8; 2 wings: 8*2=16. Body is a column of 2. Wings and body: 16+2=18. 18 holes in all.

[Michelle Giles (she/they) @MGMath4All]

@pwharris 22%=20%+2%
20%=1/5 and 2% is 1/10 of 20%
(1/5)(55)=11
(1/10)(11)=1.1
11+1.1=12.1

@mrosvhs Point-slope wondering is appealing regarding connections among function families. Until, which point on the line would be the vertex? Would (h,k) presume it to be a given point while (x1,y1) allows for any point on the line?
