The answer above is actually incorrect. If you look at the original equation, it is 96 + 36. The answer above says that 12 * 8 is 96, which is correct. The incorrect part of the answer above is the 12 * 3. This needs to equal 36, but instead they put 24. This is bad math and is therefor is incorrect. The answer choice is correct but the math is not.

To do this you first have to set this up vertically.
First you multiply through with the 2 (44×2=88). Then next, you have to multiply through with the 1 (44×1=44) But since this is the second line, you have to add the 0 to the end (440).
Now you simply add 88+440=528.
