Question

How to multiply 168 x 1873? Please tell me step by step. Thanks!

Answer 1

Answer:

Method 1: Diagonal multiplication to calculate 168 percent of 1867.

For 100, our answer will be 168

For 1867, our answer will be x

100*x = 168*1867 (In Step 1 and 2 see colored text; Diagonal multiplications will always be equal)

x = 168*1867/100 = 313656/100 = 3136.56

Answer: 168 percent of 1867 is 3136.56

Method 2: Same side division to calculate 168 percent of 1867

For 100, our answer will be 168

For 1867, our answer will be x

100/1867 = 168/x (In Step 1 and 2, see colored text; Same side divisions will always be equal)

168/x = 100/1867 or x/168 = 1867/100

x = 1867*168/100 = 313656/100 = 3136.56

Answer: 168 percent of 1867 is 3136.56

Method 3: Converting Percentage to Decimal to calculate 168 percent of 1867

Find the decimal equivalent of 168 i.e. 168/100 = 1.68

Multiply the decimal equivalent (above) to the given number i.e. 1867*1.68 = 3136.56

Answer: 168 percent of 1867 is 3136.56

168 Percentage example

Percentages express a proportionate part of a total. When a total is not given then it is assumed to be 100. E.g. 168% (read as 168 percent) can also be expressed as 168/100 or 168:100.

Example: If you earn 168% (168 percent) profit then on an investment of $100 you receive a profit of $168.

Answer 2

Answer:

314664

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to multiply 168 by every place value (e.g. 1873 can be broken down into 1000 + 800 + 70 + 3).

* = Going to be used in calculations

* Multiplying 168 by 1000 will give you 168000.

Multiplying 168 by 100 will give you 16800.

* Multiplying 168 by 800 will give you 16800 x 8 = 134400.

Multiplying 168 by 10 will give you 1680.

* Multiplying 168 by 70 will give you 1680 x 7 = 11760.

Multiplying 168 by 1 will give you 168.

* Multiplying 168 by 3 will give you 168 x 3 = 504.

For calculation, we do 168000 + 134400 + 11760 + 504.

1688000 + 134400 = 302400

302400 + 11760 = 314160

314160 + 504 = 314664.

There you have your answer.
