What is the product of 78 and 6?

Answer 1

product = times! (x)

So 78 x 6 = ?

78

x 6

------------------

(6x8)= 048

(6x70)=420

(don't forget to write the 0 first to indicate it's 7x10 (70)not just 7!)

--------------------

= 468

---------------------

OR.....

do it in your head!!

think of it just as 6 x 70

(the 70 out of the 78...rounding down to nearest ten makes an easy times sum!)

..... (6x7 = 42 ! ...SO ... 6x70=420!)

PLUS 6 x 8 ...= 48

so......... 420 plus 48... = 468 !!!!!

EASY!!

OR JUST USE A CALCULATOR?
