Bigger or Smaller? Scaling Pictures in the Art Room

Compare a product to one factor without multiplying.

Times as large

The art room copier can make pictures bigger. Do not multiply. Think about the other factor.

1.
Leo's drawing is 15 cm wide. The copier makes it 4 times as wide, so the new width is 4 × 15 cm.

4 × 15 is   times as large as 15.

2.
Ana's class makes 7 stacks of 36 cards. Ben's class makes 9 stacks of 36 cards. Without multiplying, which class makes more cards?
  • A. Ana's class, because 36 × 7 is greater
  • B. Ben's class, because 36 × 9 is greater
  • C. Both classes make the same number of cards
3.
Fill in the missing factor without multiplying.

125 × 8 is twice as large as 125 ×  .
