There are 356 rows of tress growing in the field. There are 299 trees in each row. How many trees are growing in the field? Do I subtract 299 from 356 I got the answer 57.

Come on! Does 57 make sense???

am stuck do I divide

You have three choices -- add, multiply or divide.

Now think a moment. Do you expect a big number or a small number?

What do you need to do to get that number?

a big number

is the answer 755

That's not big enough.

If there are 299 trees in each row, then in two rows there must be 590 trees. Right? In three rows, there must be 897 trees. Right?

What did I do to get those numbers?

106,44

my kid was showing me this i have no clue what to do his teacher gave her a work sheet but it says you either have to multiply or divide 😐

I know right lol

To find the total number of trees growing in the field, you need to multiply the number of rows by the number of trees in each row.

In this case, there are 356 rows of trees and 299 trees in each row. So, you would multiply 356 by 299 to get the total number of trees.

To calculate this, you multiply the two numbers together:

356 * 299 = 106,444

Therefore, there are 106,444 trees growing in the field.
