Multiplication Problem

Hi Enee, let's solve this multiplication problem together.

We need to calculate four hundred ninety-six multiplied by six hundred thirty-seven. We can do this using the standard algorithm, multiplying four hundred ninety-six by each digit of six hundred thirty-seven.

First, we multiply four hundred ninety-six by seven. Seven times six is forty-two, carry the four. Seven times nine is sixty-three, plus four is sixty-seven, carry the six. Seven times four is twenty-eight, plus six is thirty-four.

Next, we move to the tens place, which is three, or thirty. We put a zero as a placeholder. Three times six is eighteen, carry the one. Three times nine is twenty-seven, plus one is twenty-eight, carry the two. Three times four is twelve, plus two is fourteen.
