snowmen

It's snowing outside.  Let's make a snowman.  Each snowman needs 3 balls of snow to make the head, middle, and bottom.  If I make 5 snowmen (like the picture), how many snowballs do I need altogether?          Complete the table below. You are learning how to multiply numbers by 3. Draw a picture to help.

Number of Snowmen   Number of Snowballs Needed

                     1                  1x3 =

                     2                  2x3 =

                     3                  3x3 =

                     4                  4x3 =

                     5                  5x3 =

                     6                  6x3 =

                     7                  7x3 =

                     8                  8x3 =

                     9                  9x3 =

                    10               10x3 =

For 4th and 5th grades:  When I make my snowman, how many possible different ways can I dress the snowman if I have a choice of 4 different hats and 3 different scarves?  Show your work.
