What is the difference between equal groups and unequal groups?
Equal groups have the exact same number of items in each group, while unequal groups have different numbers of items in each group.
How do we write a multiplication sentence for equal groups?
First, write the number of groups, then put a multiplication sign (×), write the number of items in each group, and put an equal sign (=) with the total.
Why do we use multiplication instead of repeated addition?
Multiplication is a faster and shorter way to add the same number many times, especially when there are many groups.
