WEBVTT 00:00:00.471 --> 00:00:02.637 The local grocery store opens at nine. 00:00:02.637 --> 00:00:04.809 Its parking lot has six rows. 00:00:04.809 --> 00:00:06.588 Each row can fit seven cars. 00:00:06.588 --> 00:00:08.285 Each car has four wheels. 00:00:08.317 --> 00:00:11.182 How many cars can the parking lot fit? 00:00:11.182 --> 00:00:13.960 And I encourage you to pause the video and think about this yourself. 00:00:13.960 --> 00:00:16.641 Try to figure it out on your own. 00:00:16.641 --> 00:00:17.630 So, let's re-read this. 00:00:17.630 --> 00:00:19.890 The local grocery store opens up at nine. 00:00:19.890 --> 00:00:23.520 Well, that doesn't really matter. If we're thinking about how many cars can the parking lot fit. 00:00:23.520 --> 00:00:25.495 So we don't really have to care about that. 00:00:25.495 --> 00:00:27.745 We also dont have to care about how many wheels each car has. 00:00:27.745 --> 00:00:30.145 They're not asking us how many wheels can fit in the parking lot. 00:00:30.145 --> 00:00:31.725 So we can ignore that. 00:00:31.725 --> 00:00:34.405 What we really care about is how many rows we have. 00:00:34.405 --> 00:00:36.795 And how many cars can fit in each row. 00:00:36.795 --> 00:00:43.855 What we have is -- We have six rows and each row can fit seven cars. 00:00:43.855 --> 00:00:47.255 We're going to six groups of seven. 00:00:47.255 --> 00:00:48.365 Or, another way of thinking about it. 00:00:48.365 --> 00:00:53.215 We're going to have six times seven cars can fit in the parking lot. 00:00:53.215 --> 00:00:55.425 What is this going to be equal to? 00:00:55.425 --> 00:00:58.911 This is literally six sevens added up. 00:00:58.911 --> 00:01:05.451 This is the same thing as one, two, three, four, five, six. 00:01:05.451 --> 00:01:07.951 That last seven looks strange. 00:01:07.951 --> 00:01:13.221 Now we're going to add these up. 00:01:13.221 --> 00:01:15.641 Seven plus seven is fourteen. 00:01:15.641 --> 00:01:20.401 Twenty-one, twenty-eight, thirty-five, forty-two. 00:01:20.401 --> 00:01:25.141 Six times seven is equal to forty-two. 00:01:25.141 --> 00:01:31.021 So forty-two cars can fit in the parking lot. Don't believe me? I made a little diagram here. 00:01:31.021 --> 00:01:32.731 We have six rows. 00:01:32.731 --> 00:01:34.071 This is the first row. 00:01:34.071 --> 00:01:34.901 Second.. 00:01:34.901 --> 00:01:35.891 Third.. 00:01:35.891 --> 00:01:36.751 Fourth.. 00:01:36.751 --> 00:01:37.441 Fifth.. 00:01:37.441 --> 00:01:38.861 Sixth. 00:01:38.861 --> 00:01:41.671 Each row can fit seven cars. You see it here. 00:01:41.671 --> 00:01:44.071 One; Let me make that a little brighter. 00:01:44.071 --> 00:01:45.001 One.. 00:01:45.001 --> 00:01:45.771 Two.. 00:01:45.771 --> 00:01:46.741 Three.. 00:01:46.741 --> 00:01:49.881 Four, five, six, seven. 00:01:49.881 --> 00:01:51.510 How many cars are there? 00:01:51.596 --> 00:01:53.053 You have seven. 00:01:53.053 --> 00:01:54.253 Fourteen.. 00:01:54.253 --> 00:01:55.553 Twenty-one.. 00:01:55.553 --> 00:01:56.793 Twenty-eight.. 00:01:56.794 --> 00:01:57.934 Thirty-five.. 00:01:57.934 --> 00:02:00.334 Forty-two total cars. 00:02:00.334 --> 00:02:04.334 Six rows of seven.
