How to solve 325x52 traditional way

Answer 1

place 325 on top and line up 52 with 25 on bottom. Then multiply 2 with 5 to get 10. Place the zero bellow the line and carry the 1 over the 2. Multiply 2 times 2 to get 4 and then add one to get 5. Put the five bellow the line. Multiply 3 times 2 to get a total of 6 and bring it bellow the line. Bring a zero bellow the 0 that's bellow the line. Multiply 5 times 5 to get 25. Bring the 5 to the left of the zero you just placed and carry the 2. Multiply 5 times 2 to get 10 and add the 12. Place the 2 to the left of the 5 you just placed bellow the line and carry the 1. Multiply 5 times 3 to get 15 and add the 1 to get 16. Place the 16 to the left of the 2 you just placed bellow the line. Then add 650 plus 16250 to get an answer of 16,900.
