You can check any multiplication problem by running it back as division. If A x B = C, then B = C/A and A = C/B but that seems like a lot of trouble. If you want to see if you have multiplied two numbers correctly, multiply them again. If the two products match, they're probably correct.

Well, honey, any multiplication problem where both numbers have decimal places will give you a product with two decimal places. It's as simple as that. Just multiply those numbers together and you'll get your fancy little answer with two decimal spots. Math doesn't have to be a drag, darling, just embrace those decimals and get multiplying!
If you have calculated A + B = C then you can calculate C - A. If the answer is B then the first sum is correct.

A product is the answer to a multiplication problem. A multiple is a number that can be evenly divided by another number.
