54
Step-by-step explanation
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom aligned to the right
Place value | tens | ones |
1 | 8 | |
× | 3 | |
2. Multiply the numbers using long multiplication method
Start by multiplying the ones digit (3) of the multiplier 3 by each digit of the multiplicand 18, from right to left.
Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the ones place value:
3×8=24
Write 4 in the ones place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 2 to the tens place.

Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the tens place value and add the carried number (2):
3×1+2=5
Write 5 in the tens place.
