we did 125×34 and got the sum of 4,150.
#know it all
we got 147 x 68 = 9996
I also did 147 x 68 and got 9996. I found out a better way to go over 9996. It’s 769 x 13 = 9997.
I love the strategic possibilities here! Can you hit 10,000 exactly? 9,999?
I did 455 x 19 beacuse i thought it would be a good combation #8645 yippe
I did 769×13=9997, because it was so close to 10,000
