Question

What partial products are shown by the model below

Answer 1

300, 40, 180, 24

Explanation:

This method of multiplication is called the Grid method multiplication where the larger numbers of a multiplication operation are split into a form which is easier to multiply. The split numbers are arranged in a grid and multiplied as shown below:

Here the two numbers are 16 and 34 which are split by (10+6) and (30+4)

We multiply them

(10+6)×(30+4)

=10×30+10×4+6×30+6×4

=300+40+180+24

=544

The partial products are 300, 40, 180, 24
