What is the product of 2830 and 3?

Question

I guess I'm not that smart to figure this out and I got a A+ in math in fourth grade and I'm only a 10 year old kid and I wanna know

Answer 1

This is just an extension of all the multiplication you learned before. Let's take each column in turn. First, the setup:

2830

    *3

--------

 

0 * 3 = 0

2830
    *3
--------

      0

 

3 * 3 = 9

2830
    *3
--------

     90

 

8 * 3 = 24 (so we would drop the 4, and slip the 2 into the next column)

²2830
    *3
--------

  490

 

3 * 2 + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8

2830
    *3
--------

8490

And there's the final answer.
