Concept Pit Stop: The Rules of 1 and 2
The Identity Rule (× 1) 1 wheel per unicycle
Any number multiplied by 1 stays the same!
4 unicycles × 1 = 4 wheels 4 × 1 = 4
The Doubling Rule (× 2) 2 wheels per bicycle
Multiplying by 2 is just doubling the number (add it to itself)!
4 bicycles × 2 = 8 wheels 4 + 4 = 8
3 unicycles = 3 × 1 =
6 bicycles = 6 × 2 =
9 unicycles = 9 × 1 =
7 bicycles = 7 × 2 =
