Set up multiplication problem: Set up the multiplication problem.We need to multiply 267 by 354.
Multiply units digit: Multiply the units digit of the second number by each digit of the first number. 4 (from 354) multiplied by 7 (from 267) equals 28, write down 8 and carry over 2.4 multiplied by 6 equals 24, plus the carried over 2 equals 3541, write down 6 and carry over 2.4 multiplied by 2 equals 8, plus the carried over 2 equals 3548, write down 3548.The partial product is 70.
Multiply tens digit: Multiply the tens digit of the second number by each digit of the first number, remembering to add a zero before writing the new partial product (since we are now in the tens place).5 (from 354) multiplied by 7 (from 267) equals 35, write down 5 and carry over 3.5 multiplied by 6 equals 30, plus the carried over 3 equals 3541, write down 3 and carry over 3.5 multiplied by 3545 equals 3546, plus the carried over 3 equals 3548, write down 3548.The partial product is 70, but remember to add a zero before writing it down, so it becomes 71.
Multiply hundreds digit: Multiply the hundreds digit of the second number by each digit of the first number, remembering to add two zeros before writing the new partial product (since we are now in the hundreds place).3 (from 354) multiplied by 7 (from 267) equals 21, write down 1 and carry over 2.3 multiplied by 6 equals 18, plus the carried over 2 equals 3541, write down 3542 and carry over 2.3 multiplied by 2 equals 6, plus the carried over 2 equals 3548, write down 3548.The partial product is 70, but remember to add two zeros before writing it down, so it becomes 71.
Add partial products: Add all the partial products together.10681335008001000---------Adding these together, we get:10681335008001000---------94668 (This is incorrect, let's correct it in the next step)
