The multiples of 100

CONCEPTUAL
MathematicsNumber Representation & Place Value|Ages 7—8|ID: mt_R2ccrI-nKD

Understand that the multiples of 100 (100–900) each represent a number of hundreds with 0 tens and 0 ones

Mastery Evidence

  • Identify that 300 means 3 hundreds, 0 tens, 0 ones
  • Place multiples of 100 on a number line to 1000
  • Read and write multiples of 100 and explain their place-value structure

Assessment Prompt

“Can [child] explain that 700 means 7 hundreds with no tens and no ones — and show what that looks like using base-ten blocks or a drawing?”

Multiples of 100

The numbers 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 800, 900 refer to one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, or nine hundreds (and 0 tens and 0 ones).

Prerequisites1

Show full prerequisite tree
  • A Hundred Is Ten Tens hard

    Multiples of 100 require understanding 100 as a unit

    • A Ten Is Ten Ones hard

      100 as ten tens extends understanding of 10 as ten ones

      • The teen numbers hard

        Understanding 10 as a bundle builds on understanding teen numbers as 'a ten and some ones'

        • How Many in Total? hard

          Understanding tens-and-ones composition requires cardinality — knowing numbers represent quantities

          • One-to-one counting hard

            Cardinality principle builds on one-to-one correspondence — you must count correctly to know the last number tells 'how many'

        • Reading and writing numbers to 20 hard

          Composing/decomposing teen numbers requires reading and writing those numerals

          • How Many in Total? hard

            Reading/writing numerals 0–20 requires understanding that numerals represent quantities (cardinality)

            • One-to-one counting hard

              Cardinality principle builds on one-to-one correspondence — you must count correctly to know the last number tells 'how many'

          • Writing digits 0-9 hard

            Writing numerals requires the motor skill of forming digits 0-9 (taught in English handwriting)

    • The two digits of a two-digit number hard

      Must understand two-digit place value before extending to hundreds

      • A Ten Is Ten Ones hard

        Understanding tens and ones place value requires the concept of 10 as a bundle

        • The teen numbers hard

          Understanding 10 as a bundle builds on understanding teen numbers as 'a ten and some ones'

          • How Many in Total? hard

            Understanding tens-and-ones composition requires cardinality — knowing numbers represent quantities

            • One-to-one counting hard

              Cardinality principle builds on one-to-one correspondence — you must count correctly to know the last number tells 'how many'

          • Reading and writing numbers to 20 hard

            Composing/decomposing teen numbers requires reading and writing those numerals

            • How Many in Total? hard

              Reading/writing numerals 0–20 requires understanding that numerals represent quantities (cardinality)

              • One-to-one counting hard

                Cardinality principle builds on one-to-one correspondence — you must count correctly to know the last number tells 'how many'

            • Writing digits 0-9 hard

              Writing numerals requires the motor skill of forming digits 0-9 (taught in English handwriting)

      • The teen numbers hard

        General two-digit place value extends from understanding teen number composition

        • How Many in Total? hard

          Understanding tens-and-ones composition requires cardinality — knowing numbers represent quantities

          • One-to-one counting hard

            Cardinality principle builds on one-to-one correspondence — you must count correctly to know the last number tells 'how many'

        • Reading and writing numbers to 20 hard

          Composing/decomposing teen numbers requires reading and writing those numerals

          • How Many in Total? hard

            Reading/writing numerals 0–20 requires understanding that numerals represent quantities (cardinality)

            • One-to-one counting hard

              Cardinality principle builds on one-to-one correspondence — you must count correctly to know the last number tells 'how many'

          • Writing digits 0-9 hard

            Writing numerals requires the motor skill of forming digits 0-9 (taught in English handwriting)
