Question

What value should go in the empty box to complete the calculation for finding the product of 23.456 × 0.86? 23.456 times 0.86 gives two partial products. The first is 140736, and the second is unknown. 1,576,480 1,623,392 1,876,480 1,923,392

Answer 1

    23,456
x         86


If we calculate the conventional way,
This gives us 23,456 * (6 + 80)
= (23,456 * 6) + (23,456 * 80)

First, we multiply 23456 by 6, the figures obtained will be 140736 (which is given in the question)

Next, we multiply 23456 by 80, the figures obtained will be 1,876,480
The third option is the correct answer
