Lesson 13 Application Problem
Michaela and Gilda read the same book. It takes Michaela about 8 minutes to read a chapter, and Gilda about 10 minutes. There are 9 chapters in the book. How many fewer minutes does Michaela spend reading than Gilda?
Note: This problem comes after the Concept Development so that students have the opportunity to apply some of the strategies they learned in the context of problem solving. Encourage them to check their answers to the nines facts using new learning.

c. Kent notices another pattern in Problem 2. His work is shown below. He sees that:
• the tens digit in the product is 1 less than the number of groups
• the ones digit in the product is 10 minus the number of groups
Use Kent’s strategy to solve 6 × 9 and 7 × 9.
d. Show an example of when Kent’s pattern doesn’t work.
