What is 127 x 3? (Be sure to show a useful strategy)
There are many ways to do this problem, here are a couple possibilities...
* You can multiply each place and then add them together, so 100 x 3 = 300, 20 x 3 = 60, and 7 x 3 = 21, and then 300 + 60 + 21 = 381
* You could also line up 127 and add it three times all at once or add two together and add the third 127 to the sum. (127 + 127 + 127 = 381) or (127 + 127 = 254, 254 + 127 = 381)
