Answer 1

To find the total cost of the volleyballs, we need to calculate the product of 12 (the number of volleyballs) and 26 (the price per volleyball).

Part 1: Find the Partial Products of 12 × 26

We can break down the multiplication into easier components:

1. Decompose 26 into 20 and 6:

   • \( 12 \times 20 = 240 \)
   • \( 12 \times 6 = 72 \)

2. Now add the two products together:

   • \( 240 + 72 = 312 \)

In terms of the partial products, you can show how multiplication can be done:

• 12 (from 12 x 20)
• 240 (from 12 x 20, carried as 12 x 2 and then adding a zero)
• 72 (from 12 x 6)

The option that shows partial products is: 12, 60, 40, 200 (This isn't the right breakdown based on our calculation, so likely the choices repeat based on misunderstanding)

Part 2: Calculate How Much the Team Spent

The total spent is \( 12 \times 26 = 312 \).

Thus, the answer to how much the team spent is: $312.00.
