Here's 234 x 36 worked out using the box method:

234

x 36

30 6

___________________________________

9,720 1,404

9,720

1,404

__________

Step-by-step:

Write 234 and 36 on the right side:

234

x 36

Break 36 into 30 and 6:

234

x 30

6

Multiply 234 by 30 and write the result (9,720) under 30:

234

x 30

9,720

6

Multiply 234 by 6 and write the result (1,404) under 6:

234

x 30

9,720

1,404 6

Add 9,720 and 1,404 for a total of 11,124:

234

x 30

9,720

1,404

_______

11,124

Therefore, 234 x 36 = 11,124

So the full steps are:

Write the numbers on the right side

Break the second number into place values

Multiply the first number by each place value

Add the partial products

The final sum is the total products
