Skip Counting and Repeated Addition

We learnt how to use skip counting and repeated addition to figure out the multiplication and division problem.

Skip counting is counting up and down using the same number. For example : Sam has seven 5 doller notes how much money does he have all together?

 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35. The answer is 35. We used 7 lots of 5 to figure the answer.                                                                                   

Repeating Addition is repeating a certain number to get a answer for a problem. For example: Sam was at the beach for five days he collected 15 sea shells every day to keep. how many shells does he have in total? 

15 +15 +15 +15 +15 =70. We used 5 lots of 15 to figure out the answer.

I learned a lot on how to use skip counting and repeating numbers.
