John is solving 0.04 x 0.9. First he makes an estimate. He writes 1 x 1=1. Is his estimate reasonable? Why or why not?
No. He should have estimated: 0 x 1=0. This would be closer to the real product.

Sally is practicing the Distributive Property. She rewrites the following equation using the property. 10 x 55= (10 x 50) + (0 x 5) What mistake did she make? Rewrite 10 x 55 using the Distributive Property correctly.
She multiplied the 5 by 0, rather than by 10. It should be... 10 x 55= (10 x 50) + (10 x 5)
