Here are the solutions to the daily startup problems with explanations: I have 4 groups of 6 black chips. 4x6 = 24 I have 4 groups of 6 red chips. 4x6 = 24 I owe 4 groups of 6 black chips. -4x6 = -24 (Owing chips is a negative amount) I owe 4 groups of 6 red chips. -4x6 = -24 (Owing chips is a negative amount) In the first two situations, having chips is a positive amount. In the last two situations, owing chips is represented as a negative amount since it is a debt that is owed.

1. Multiplying
negative and
positive
numbers!
2. Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division and of fractions to multiply and divide rational numbers.
a. Understand that multiplication is extended from fractions to rational numbers by requiring that operations continue to satisfy the properties of
operations, particularly the distributive property, leading to products such as (–1)(–1) = 1 and the rules for multiplying signed numbers. Interpret
products of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts.
b. Understand that integers can be divided, provided that the divisor is not zero, and every quotient of integers (with non-zero divisor) is a rational
number. If p and q are integers, then –(p/q) = (–p)/q = p/(–q). Interpret quotients of rational numbers by describing real-world contexts.
c. Apply properties of operations as strategies to multiply and divide rational numbers.
d. Convert a rational number to a decimal using long division; know that the decimal form of a rational number terminates in 0s or eventually repeats.
