The process of multiplication can sometimes be hard to grasp for our kids. Big numbers and long multiplication can be tricky. There are various methods and technique that can help in the process. iDevBooks has developed several multiplication apps to help and support kids. iDevBooks maths apps are being used extensively and teachers using them in their classrooms find them easy to use and well perceived by the children as these math apps go step by step, making multiplication a fun thing to do!

Long Multiplication - Math Apps iDevBooks
The Long Multiplication app allows you to solve random and custom multiplication problems using the long multiplication method. The method is also known as the column multiplication method.
The long multiplication app is ideal to practice multiplication with several digits. It appears exactly as if you were doing it on a piece of paper but on the iPod or iPhone. The method breaks down the multiplication problem into a series of shorter and easier multiplications.
The Long Multiplication app allows the user to solve the problems step by step.Kids really see what steps to take and how long multiplication works. It adds automation to the process, and brings a great interface as a learning support tool.
Long Multiplication is available for download via the iTunes App Store

Lattice Multiplicaton - iDevbooks Math Apps
Lattice multiplication is algorithmically equivalent to long multiplication. A lattice (a grid) guides the calculation. All the multiplications are done first and then the additions. The method was introduced to Europe in 1202 in Fibonacci's Liber Abaci.
In this groundbreaking book Fibonacci presented many algorithms for working with Arabic numerals. Ancient Indians and Chinese originally invented some of the algorithms. Fibonacci presented both the current standard long multiplication and also an originally Indian method called lattice multiplication, which is faster and more compact for working with larger numbers.

Grid Multiplication - iDevbooks Math Apps
The Grid Multiplication app can be used to teach and study the grid multiplication method. The grid multiplication method is a two-step process. In the example 84 x 74 the numbers are first broken up into 80 + 4 and 70 + 4, and written on a grid. Multiplying the row and column headers then solves each cell of the grid. Eventually the partial products 5600, 420, 320, and 24 are added together.

Partial Products Multiplication - iDevBooks Math Apps
The Partial Products Multiplication app can be used to teach and study the partial products multiplication method. The Partial Products Multiplication MethodThe partial products multiplication method is a two-step process. In the example 383 x 6, each place value is first multiplied separately. The partial products are added and 18 + 480 + 1800 produces the answer 2298.
In the Everyday Mathematics curriculum the partial products method is the focus algorithm for multiplication.
