Lesson overview:Deriving Decimal Multiplication Facts
- In this lesson, we will derive multiplication facts involving decimal numbers, exploring a range of language structures and models. By the end of this lesson we will be able to use a known fact (e.g. 2 x 6 = 12) to derive a decimal calculation (e.g. 0.2 x 6 =1.2).
