Peer reviewedHaigh, Gordon – Mathematics in School, 1990
Discusses a number series made from the multiplication of numbers to digits. Presents a number series for diverse multiplication numbers. (YP)
Descriptors: Arithmetic, Computation, Elementary Education, Elementary School Mathematics
Peer reviewedDiDomenico, Angelo S. – Mathematics Teacher, 1983
It is seen as important that mathematics teachers encourage open, imaginative investigations that give students an opportunity to probe, find patterns and relations, and derive new patterns and relations. The article focuses on multiplication tables and classes, including questions for further exploration. (MP)
Descriptors: Equations (Mathematics), Instruction, Mathematical Concepts, Mathematical Enrichment
Peer reviewedAnderson, Oliver D. – Mathematics and Computer Education, 1990
Discusses arithmetic during long-multiplications and long-division. Provides examples in decimal reciprocals for the numbers 1 through 20; connection with divisibility tests; repeating patterns; and a common fallacy on repeating decimals. (YP)
Descriptors: Arithmetic, Computation, Decimal Fractions, Division
Peer reviewedZeilberger, Doron; Todd, Philip – Mathematics Teacher, 1981
An unusual way of using the long multiplication algorithm to solve problems is presented. It is conceptually harder, since it involves negative numbers but is easier to perform once mastered, since the size of the multiplication table required is smaller than the standard one. (MP)

Peer reviewedMcAuley, Joe – Mathematics in School, 1990
Provides methods of teaching negative number operations, including addition, subtraction, and multiplication. Presents examples and activities for the operations. (YP)
Descriptors: Addition, Arithmetic, Computation, Integers
Peer reviewedSawyer, W. W. – Mathematics in School, 1989
This article discusses the classroom use of discovery of number pattern. Provided are examples of a table of squares, multiplications of numbers, and algebraic expressions. (YP)
