Skip counting and repeated addition

I learnt about skip counting and repeated addition.

First we did an equation. The equation was Sam has 7 five dollars notes. How much money does he have? By using repeated addition I can make It easier to read but It will be slower.

Multiplication answer 5x7= 35 .

Repeated addition answer: 5+5+5+5+5+5+5+5= 35.

Next we did another equation. Mike was at the beach for five days and collected 14 seashells to keep each day. How many seashells did Mike collect over his entire beach trip?

By using skip counting I can also solve this faster (Still multiplication)

Multiplication answer: 5x14=70. Repeated addition answer 14+14+14+14+14=70.

Finally we skipped counted in our books the 6, 7, 8, 9 and 12 times tables up to ten.

I learned a lot about multiplication and different ways on how to solve math equations.
