Common Mistakes and How to Avoid Them in 12 Times Tables
While learning the table of 12, it is possible to commit mistakes. You can avoid making these mistakes by being more careful in the area mentioned below.
Mistake 1
Believing multiplication is repeated addition
Initial learning of multiplication is often understood as repeated addition, which is true in basic cases. However, do not over-rely on this approach as it makes it difficult to conceptualize multiplication beyond numbers, such as when you have to multiply decimals or are dealing with exponents.
12 Times Table Examples
Problem 1
The price of a product increased from 12×10 to 12×12. What is the percentage increase?
Original price = 12×10 = 120
New price = 12×12 = 144
The increase in price → 144-120 = 24
Percentage increase → 24/120 × 100 = 20%
Explanation
The above is how we ascertain the percentage increase in the price of the product.
Problem 2
Calculate — (12×9)+(12×7)-(12×5)
Calculate the product first;
12×9= 108
12×7= 84
12×5= 60
Substitute the above into the expression;
108+84-60 = 192-60 = 132
Explanation
The above is a simpler way to calculate the expression given above. Be mindful while calculating.
Problem 3
12x +36 = 132. Find x.
12x +36 = 132
Subtract 36 from both sides:
12x = 132-36 = 96
We now divide both the sides by 12:
x= 96/12 = 8
x= 8
Explanation
We find the value of by following the above process. Be mindful while calculating.
