Final answer:
To find the product of 223 and 12, multiply the ones place and tens place of 12 with 223 and add the results.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the product of 223 and 12, you can multiply the two numbers together. Start by multiplying the ones place of 12 (2) with 223 and write down the result:
2 x 223 = 446
Next, multiply the tens place of 12 (1) with 223 and write down the result, but shift it one place to the left:
1 x 223 = 2230
Finally, add the two results together:
446 + 2230 = 2676
So, 223 x 12 = 2676.
