Answer:

500 x 4

500 x 4

5 x 4 =

20

Add the two 00's from 500.

You get 2,000.

Explanation:

Well, we can focus on the number 5 from 500 and multiply it by 4 to receive the answer of 20 because we can assume the person solving this question knows simple multiplication factors and how to solve 5 times 4. Then, we can add the two zeros from the 500. Thus, it's 2,000.

Hope this helps.
