Ready to do one with a bigger
number and more DMS loops? I think you are,
dude!
Set it up:
Remember, your DMS loop...
Division, then
multiplication, then subtraction... and we do this until we run out of
numbers!
Division:
| Five
doesn't go into 9 cleanly... What comes
close, but is a little less?
Five goes
into 9 one
time... with a little left over. Put that
1 right above the
9: |
 |
That little freaky thing seemed a lot easier this
time, didn't it? Let's keep going!
| Multiplication:
Multiply the 1
and the 5 and put the
answer right under the
9: |
 |
|
Subtraction: Do the
subtraction...
That's 9
- 5
= 4 |
 |
First
DMS loop done! This
is getting easier, isn't it?
Division, multiplication, subtraction.
Let's get the next number and
do the DMS loop again!
Set it up:
Drag the 6 down.
That makes it a 46... |
 |
Now, let's go back into our
DMS loop
using the 46!
| Division:
We want to see how
many times 5 will go into
46... Five
goes into 45 nine
times, so we'll use that!
5
goes into 46 nine
times with a little left over. Put that 9
right above the 6: |
 |
| Multiplication:
Multiply the 9
and the 5 and put the
answer right under the
46: |
 |
| Subtraction:
That's 46
- 45
= 1
We haven't used all the numbers
yet, so we need to do another loop! |
 |
Let's get the next number and
do the DMS loop again!
Get that bad boy set up:
Drag the 5 down.
That makes it a 15... |
 |
Now, let's go back into our
DMS loop
using the 15!
| Division:
We want to see how
many times 5 will go into
15... It goes in cleanly!
5
goes into 15
three times. Put that
3 right above the 5: |
 |
| Multiplication:
Multiply the 3
and the 5 and put the
answer right under the
15: |
 |
| Subtraction:
That's 15
- 15
= 0
DONE, BABY!!
The answer is
193. |
 |
Check it!!
193 x
5 should =
965!
There's one more little thing
I need to show you before you try some on your own... Check out the
