Question

Multiply 5 *381 using place value and expanded form

Answer 1

This is a 2-step problem, for anyone who wants to know. The answer is 1905 for
`5 * 381`

Proof:


`5 * 1 = 5`


`5 * 80 = 400`


`5 * 300 = 1500`


`5 + 400 + 1500 = 1905`

Word explanation in steps:

First, do 5 x 1 which is 5 and also do 5 x 80, if you're confused do 40 x 5 which is 200 (4 x 5 is 20 and you add the extra 0 from 40) then do 200 + 200 which is 400. Then, 5 x 300, if you're confused, instead do 3 x 5 which is 15 and add 2 zeros to it, the answer is 1,500. Next, using all numbers you have multiplied, the next step is to add all the numbers. Last, that is how you get your answer answer of 1905.
