If you double both measures (length x width) that is multiplication.
a 6" x 6" block is 36 sq inches, doubled both sides is 12x12 or 144 sq inches
This is the same as making 4 times the number of blocks.
If you only double one measure (length OR width) that is the same as doubling the number of blocks.
6x 6 (36 sq") becomes 6x12 - only 72 sq "
