Write an expression that shows how to use the halving and doubling strategy to find 28x50

Halving strategy means we divide by 2

Doubling strategy means we multiply by 2

We apply halving strategy for 28 and doubling strategy for 50

Half of 28 is 14

Double of 50 is 100

So 14 * 100 = 1400

Now we check with 28 * 50

28 x 50 = 1400

So required expression is

[tex]\frac{28}{2} * (50*2)[/tex]
