How to solve 12 1/2 x 4 in area model?

Answer 1

Hey there!

12 1/2 * 4

= 12 1/2 * 4/1

= 12 * 2 + 1 / 2 * 4/1

= 24 + 1 / 2 * 4/1

= 25/2 * 4/1

= 25(4) / 2(1)

= 100 / 2

= 100 ÷ 2 / 2 ÷ 2

= 50 / 1

= 50

EASIER UNDERSTANDING….

= 25 + 25 + 25 + 25 / 2 + 0

= 50 + 50 / 2 + 0

= 100 / 2

= 100 ÷ 2

= 50

Therefore, your answer is: 50

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
