8 * 404 = 8(----- + 4)
At first, we will split 404 into two numbers one of them is 4
To find the other number subtract 4 from 404
404 - 4 = 400
8 * 404 = 8(400 + 4)
Now we will multiply 8 by 40 and 8 by 4
8(400 + 4) = 8 * 400 + 8 * 4
It is easy to find the product of 8 and 4
8 * 4 = 32
8 * 400 = 3200
Let us add them
3200 + 32 = 3232
The answer is 3232
