The answer: 7 * 1,829 = " 12,803 " .
______________
<span>The following is the explanation—"in expanded form" — (as per the specfic instructions— within this very question—as to how to get the answer:
</span>____________________
Given: 7 * 1,829 = ? ; Find the solution; using "expanded form" :
____________
(7 * 9 = 63 ) ; +
(7 *20 = 140) ; +
(7 * 800 = 5,600) ; +
___________________________________________
(7 * 1,000 = 7,000) ;
___________________________________________
Now, add the the values together to solve the problem:
___________________________________________
→ 7 * 1,829 = 63 + 140 + 5,600 + 7,000 ;
{ = 203 + 5,600 + 7,000 } ;
{ = 5,803 + 7,000 } ;
= 12,803 ; which is the answer.
________________________________________________
Alternately, write out the steps as follows—using "expanded form":
________________________________________________
→ 7 * 1,829 = ?
________________________________________________
→ 7 * 1,829 = (7*9) + (7*20) + (7*800) + (1,000) ;
________________________________________________
→ 7 * 1,829 = 63 + 140 + 5,600 + 1,000 ;
{ = 203 + 5,600 + 7,000 } ;
{ = 5,803 + 7,000 } ;
= 12,803 ; which is the answer.
____
→ {Now, is our obtained answer: "12,803" ; the "correct answer"—to the problem: " 7 * 1,829 " ;} ??
→ Let us check: {Note: " 7 * 1,829 " ; is the same as: ↔ " 1,829 * 7 " .}.
→ Using a calculator, does: "7 * 1829 = ? 12,803" ?? ; Yes! ;
→ &, for that matter; does: " 1829 * 7 =? 12,803" ?? ; Yes! .
_______
Furthermore, let us check, using the "traditional format" ;
→ Does: "1,829 * 7 =? 12,803 ?? " ;
________
{NB: We are multiplying 2 (TWO) numbers together; & 1 (ONE) of these 2 [TWO] numbers is a "1-digit" ["single-digit"] number; & the "OTHER" multiplicand is a "multiple-digit" [specifically, a"4-digit"] number.}.
______
NB: Yes; using a calculator is sufficient. Below, I simply provide an alternate method to confirm whether our "obtained value" is correct.
_____
→ Does: "7 * 1,289 = ? 12,803" ?? ;
→ Using the "traditional method"; let us check; as follows:
_____
₅ ₂ ₆
→ 1, 829
<span> <u> * 7 </u> </span>
12 8 03 ;
_____
So; does: "12,803 =? 12,803" ?? ; YES!
→ This "traditional method" shows that: "7 * 1,829" ; does, in fact, equal: "12,803".
_____
{NB: Explanation of the steps used in solving the aforementioned problem using the "traditional method"—just for clarification and confirmation} :
_____
→Start with: "7*9= 63" ; Write down the "3" & 'carry over' the "6" ; {Note the small-sized digit, "6"; written on top of the "2"; {commonly done—to keep track);
→Then; "7*2 = 14" ; then add the "small digit 6"; to the "14" ; →"14+6 =20" ;
Write down the "0" ; & 'carry over' the "2" ; {Note the "small-sized digit, "2"; written over the "8"; (commonly done—to keep track);
→ Then; "7*8 = 56" ; then add the "small digit 2"; to the "56"; → "56+2 = 58" ; Write down the "8" ; & 'carry over' the "5" ; {Note the "small-sized digit", "5" ; written over the "1" ; (commonly done—to keep track);
→Then; "7*1 = 7" ; then add the "small digit 5"; to the "7" ; → "7+5 = 12" ; Write down the "12" ; in its entirety—since are no digits left [in the multiplicand, "1,829"] ; to "carry over".
____
We get: "12,803" ; which =? "12,803" ?? ;→Yes!
____
I hope my explanation of how to solve "7 * 1,829" ; using the "expanded form" is helpful. Also, i hope my explanation—albeit lengthy— of confirming that [<em>our</em>] "correctly obtained value"—which is: "12,803"— is of some help.

Answer:
Width of river = 0.25 mile
As length of river is not given , but it is given that campsite is located 1 mile east upstream, So length of river = 1 mile
Speed of mine in river while going upstream = 3 miles per hour
Speed of current as going Upstream = 1 miles per hour
Now Reduced speed of mine = Speed of mine in river while going upstream - Speed of current as going Upstream
= 3 - 1
= 2 miles per hour
1. There are two ways to reach campsite
(a) either walk 1 mile from starting point in east direction and then swim 0.25 mile in North direction to reach campsite.
Or
(b) From the starting point Considering a right triangle having, base=1 mile and altitude = 0.25 mile, then finding the length of hypotenuse using formula = 
=
=√1.0625
=1.03078(approx)
⇒ you must walk a distance of 1 mile in the east direction and then swim 0.25 mile north direction to reach directly at campsite.[shown in the diagram]
