In Maths we have been focusing on doubling and halving/Multiplication. I like using doubling and halving because in math when I have to solve multiplication problems I get confused, so it is really good that I know how to double and halve. Doubling and halving is when you double the small number and you half the big number. Sometimes if you have an uneven equation like 15 x 5 you can’t halve either of those numbers so you would have to double both the numbers, so 15x2 is 30 5x2 is 10 so you would have 30x10. Another (Example) 5x14, you would half the 14 which will make 7 then you would double the 5 which will make 10 and then you would have 7x10
