Exploring Multiplication Using Russian peasant multiplication
1. Exploring Multiplication: Using Russian Peasant Multiplication
Objective: To explore multiplication using doubling and halving skills
Materials Required: Paper and pencils
Steps:
• To solve: 28 × 34
1. One student draws column A and other student draws column B. We can call column A
‘half’ and column B ‘doubles’.
2. Each student then writes the factors as shown. The number in column A is halved and
the one in column B is doubled repeatedly. When you have to half an odd number, ignore
the remainder. Both students stop when 1 is reached in column A. Cancel all the even
numbers from column A and its pair in column B.
2. 3. Next, add the numbers that are not cancelled from column B only. That gives the product.
