Welcome fellow math explorers!

Today, we're not just crunching numbers; we're painting mathematical masterpieces.
Our canvas?
The Area Model.
Our brushes?
Imagination and logic.
And guess what?
We've got a bonus—introducing the Division Area Model!
So, fasten your seatbelts, because this video is going to be a mathematical
rollercoaster!

What Is the Area Model


The Area Model isn't just a math trick; it's a powerful visual tool that helps us
understand multiplication.
Imagine it as a secret garden where numbers bloom into solutions.
Let's break it down:

- Step 1: The Canvas for Multiplication

- Picture a blank canvas.


This is our multiplication arena.

- Divide the canvas into smaller sections—each representing a digit place value
(ones, tens, hundreds, and so on).

- Step 2: The Players for Multiplication

- Let's say we're multiplying 37 by 24.

- Write these factors along the sides of your canvas: 37 on top and 24 on the side.

- Step 3: The Brushstrokes for Multiplication

- In each section, multiply the corresponding digits:

- 3 (from 37) times 2 (from 24) = 6 (place it in the intersection).

- 3 times 20 (from 24) = 60 (place it in the tens section).

- 30 (from 37) times 2 = 60 (also in the tens section).

- 30 times 20 = 600 (in the hundreds section).

- Step 4: The Masterpiece for Multiplication

- Add up all the numbers in your canvas:

- 6 (ones) + 60 (tens) + 600 (hundreds) = 666 (our product!).

Why the Area Model Rocks for Multiplication:The Area Model isn't just about
crunching numbers; it's about seeing multiplication.
It's like math with 3D glasses!
Plus, it's a fantastic mental math tool.

Introducing the Division Area ModelNow, let's flip the canvas and explore the
Division Area Model:

- Step 1: The Canvas for Division


- Imagine a fresh canvas, but this time, it's for division.

- Divide the canvas into sections—each representing the divisor and quotient.

- Step 2: The Players for Division

- Suppose we're dividing 666 by 24.

- Write the divisor (24) on the left side and leave space for the quotient.

- Step 3: The Brushstrokes for Division

- Start with the largest multiple of 24 that fits into 666.


That's 600.

- Place 600 in the quotient section.

- Subtract 600 from 666 to get 66.

- Bring down the next digit, which is 6.

- Now, find the largest multiple of 24 that fits into 66.


That's 48.

- Place 48 in the quotient next to 600.

- Subtract 48 from 66 to get 18.

- Step 4: The Masterpiece for Division

- Our quotient is 27, and the remainder is 18.

Why the Division Area Model Rocks:The Division Area Model helps us visualize the
process of division.
It's like sharing a pizza—slice by slice!
