How can you tell that (448+217+34)×9 is three times as large as (448+217+34)×3 without doing complicated calculations? Compare the parts that are the same. The first expression shows a sum multiplied by a multiple of 3 . The second shows the same sum multiplied by a multiple of 3 . So, the two expressions are both 3 times as large as the sum. Compare the parts that are the same. The first expression shows a sum multiplied by a number. The second shows the same sum multiplied by a number. So, both expressions must be greater than the sum. Compare the parts that are different. The first expression shows a sum multiplied by 9 . The second shows the same sum multiplied by 3 . So, the first expression is three times as large as the second expression. Compare the parts that are different. The first expression shows a sum multiplied by 9 . The second shows the same sum multiplied by 3 . So, the first expression must be less than the second expression.
