Solution - Long multiplication
Step-by-step explanation
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom aligned to the right
| Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 3 | 4 | 5 | 3 | |
| × | 2 | |||
2. Multiply the numbers using long multiplication method
Start by multiplying the ones digit (2) of the multiplier 2 by each digit of the multiplicand 3,453, from right to left.
Multiply the ones digit (2) of the multiplicator by the number in the ones place value:
2×3=6
Write 6 in the ones place.
| Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 3 | 4 | 5 | 3 | |
| × | 2 | |||
| 6 |
Multiply the ones digit (2) of the multiplicator by the number in the tens place value:
2×5=10
Write 0 in the tens place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 1 to the hundreds place.
| Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 1 | ||||
| 3 | 4 | 5 | 3 | |
| × | 2 | |||
| 0 | 6 |
Multiply the ones digit (2) of the multiplicator by the number in the hundreds place value and add the carried number (1):
2×4+1=9
Write 9 in the hundreds place.
| Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 1 | ||||
| 3 | 4 | 5 | 3 | |
| × | 2 | |||
| 9 | 0 | 6 |
Multiply the ones digit (2) of the multiplicator by the number in the thousands place value:
2×3=6
Write 6 in the thousands place.
| Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 1 | ||||
| 3 | 4 | 5 | 3 | |
| × | 2 | |||
| 6 | 9 | 0 | 6 |
The solution is: 6,906
