Math Task - Decimal Product Close to 50

Grades: 6th Grade, 5th Grade
Subjects: Math

Student Instructions

Directions: 1. Your goal is to use the digits 1 - 9 to fill in the boxes so that the product is as close to 50 as possible. But you can only use each digit once! 2. Use the move tool to move the number tiles into the boxes you choose. 3. Be sure to check your work - you can use the tools on Seesaw or paper and pencil. 4. Use the drawing or label tools to write you final product in the red box. 5. When you have finished the problem, use the mic tool to share how you figured out your solution. 6. Be sure to listen to your recording before you tap the check. 7. Tap the check to submit your work. Remember, you will probably need to try several different solutions before finding the best one!
