Translate Word Phrases to Math Notation

Earlier in this section, we translated math notation into words. Now we’ll reverse the process and translate word phrases into math notation. Some of the words that indicate multiplication are given in Table $\PageIndex{3}$ .

Table $\PageIndex{3}$
Operation	Word Phrase	Example	Expression
Multiplication	times	3 times 8	3 × 8, 3 • 8, (3)(8),
	product	the product of 3 and 8	(3)8, or 3(8)
	twice	twice 4	2 • 4

Example $\PageIndex{12}$ : Translate and simplify

Translate and simplify: the product of $12$ and $27$ .

Solution

The word product tells us to multiply. The words of $12$ and $27$ tell us the two factors.

	the product of 12 and 27
Translate.	12 • 27
Multiply.	324

exercise $\PageIndex{23}$

Translate and simplify the product of $13$ and $28$ .

Answer: $13 · 28$ ; $364$

exercise $\PageIndex{24}$

Translate and simplify the product of $47$ and $14$ .

Answer: $47 · 14$ ; $658$

Example $\PageIndex{13}$ : translate and simplify

Translate and simplify: twice two hundred eleven.

Solution

The word twice tells us to multiply by $2$ .

	twice two hundred eleven
Translate.	2(211)
Multiply.	422

exercise $\PageIndex{25}$

Translate and simplify: twice one hundred sixty-seven.

Answer: $2(167)$ ; $334$

exercise $\PageIndex{26}$

Translate and simplify: twice two hundred fifty-eight.

Answer: $2(258)$ ; $516$

Multiply Whole Numbers in Applications

We will use the same strategy we used previously to solve applications of multiplication. First, we need to determine what we are looking for. Then we write a phrase that gives the information to find it. We then translate the phrase into math notation and simplify to get the answer. Finally, we write a sentence to answer the question.

Example $\PageIndex{14}$ : multiply

Humberto bought $4$ sheets of stamps. Each sheet had $20$ stamps. How many stamps did Humberto buy?

Solution

We are asked to find the total number of stamps.

Write a phrase for the total.	the product of 4 and 20
Translate to math notation.	4 • 20
Multiply.	$CNX_BMath_Figure_01_04_021_img-01.png$
Write a sentence to answer the question.	Humberto bought 80 stamps.

exercise $\PageIndex{27}$

Valia donated water for the snack bar at her son’s baseball game. She brought $6$ cases of water bottles. Each case had $24$ water bottles. How many water bottles did Valia donate?

Answer: Valia donated $144$ water bottles.

exercise $\PageIndex{28}$

Vanessa brought $8$ packs of hot dogs to a family reunion. Each pack has $10$ hot dogs. How many hot dogs did Vanessa bring?

Answer: Vanessa bought $80$ hot dogs.

Example $\PageIndex{15}$ : multiply

When Rena cooks rice, she uses twice as much water as rice. How much water does she need to cook $4$ cups of rice?

Solution

We are asked to find how much water Rena needs.

Write as a phrase.	twice as much as 4 cups
Translate to math notation.	2 • 4
Multiply to simplify.	8
Write a sentence to answer the question.	Rena needs 8 cups of water for cups of rice.

exercise $\PageIndex{29}$

Erin is planning her flower garden. She wants to plant twice as many dahlias as sunflowers. If she plants $14$ sunflowers, how many dahlias does she need?

Answer: Erin needs $28$ dahlias.

exercise $\PageIndex{30}$

A college choir has twice as many women as men. There are $18$ men in the choir. How many women are in the choir?

Answer: There are $36$ women in the choir.

Example $\PageIndex{16}$ : multiply

Van is planning to build a patio. He will have $8$ rows of tiles, with $14$ tiles in each row. How many tiles does he need for the patio?

Solution

We are asked to find the total number of tiles.

Write as a phrase.	the product of 8 and 14
Translate to math notation.	8 • 14
Multiply to simplify.	$Math_1.4_004.png$
Write a sentence to answer the question.	Van needs 112 tiles for his patio.

exercise $\PageIndex{31}$

Jane is tiling her living room floor. She will need $16$ rows of tile, with $20$ tiles in each row. How many tiles does she need for the living room floor?

Answer: Jane needs $320$ tiles.

exercise $\PageIndex{32}$

Yousef is putting shingles on his garage roof. He will need $24$ rows of shingles, with $45$ shingles in each row. How many shingles does he need for the garage roof?

Answer: Yousef needs $1,080$ tiles.

If we want to know the size of a wall that needs to be painted or a floor that needs to be carpeted, we will need to find its area. The area is a measure of the amount of surface that is covered by the shape. Area is measured in square units. We often use square inches, square feet, square centimeters, or square miles to measure area. A square centimeter is a square that is one centimeter (cm.) on a side. A square inch is a square that is one inch on each side, and so on.

$An image of two squares, one larger than the other. The smaller square is 1 centimeter by 1 centimeter and has the label “1 square centimeter”. The larger square is 1 inch by 1 inch and has the label “1 square inch”.$

Figure $\PageIndex{2}$

For a rectangular figure, the area is the product of the length and the width. Figure $\PageIndex{3}$ shows a rectangular rug with a length of $2$ feet and a width of $3$ feet. Each square is $1$ foot wide by $1$ foot long, or $1$ square foot. The rug is made of $6$ squares. The area of the rug is $6$ square feet.

$An image of a rectangle containing 6 blocks, 2 feet tall and 3 feet wide. This image has the label “2 times 3 = 6 feet squared”.$

Figure $\PageIndex{3}$ : The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and its width, or 6 square feet.

Example $\PageIndex{17}$ : area

Jen’s kitchen ceiling is a rectangle that measures $9$ feet long by $12$ feet wide. What is the area of Jen’s kitchen ceiling?

Solution

We are asked to find the area of the kitchen ceiling.

Write as a phrase.	the product of 9 and 12
Translate to math notation.	9 • 12
Multiply to simplify.	$Math_1.4_005.png$
Write a sentence to answer the question.	The area of Jen's kitchen ceiling is 108 square feet.

exercise $\PageIndex{33}$

Zoila bought a rectangular rug. The rug is $8$ feet long by $5$ feet wide. What is the area of the rug?

Answer: The area of the rug is $40$ square feet.

exercise $\PageIndex{34}$

Rene’s driveway is a rectangle $45$ feet long by $20$ feet wide. What is the area of the driveway?

Answer: The area of the driveway is $900$ square feet

Multiplication Property of Zero
- The product of any number and $0$ is $0$ .
Identity Property of Multiplication
- The product of any number and $1$ is the number.
Commutative Property of Multiplication
- Changing the order of the factors does not change their product.
Multiply two whole numbers to find the product.
- Write the numbers so each place value lines up vertically.
- Multiply the digits in each place value.
- Work from right to left, starting with the ones place in the bottom number.
- Multiply the bottom number by the ones digit in the top number, then by the tens digit, and so on.
- If a product in a place value is more than $9$ , carry to the next place value.
- Write the partial products, lining up the digits in the place values with the numbers above. Repeat for the tens place in the bottom number, the hundreds place, and so on.
- Insert a zero as a placeholder with each additional partial product.
- Add the partial products.

Glossary

product: The product is the result of multiplying two or more numbers.
