    I have a worksheet that has three non-itemized spatial problems. The first is a division problem, the next two are multiplication problems. Do I align the top row of the multiplication problems with the divisor in the division problem or the line above?

    Would it be possible for you to attach a scan of the worksheet? It would be helpful to ascertain an answer to this question. In the meantime, I have asked advice from the rest of the committee.

    Thanks for posting the attachment. Several of the committee members agreed that they would transcribe as if they were itemized. That is, align the divisor and dividend of the division question with the top line of the multiplication problem.
    Having now seen the attachment, I realize that since there is no quotient or partial products and differences, the separation line must be omitted. See Rule XXIV §180.c. Thus they would all start on the same line.
