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 | 8 | 5 | ||
| × | 6 | |||
2. Multiply the numbers using long multiplication method
Start by multiplying the ones digit (6) of the multiplier 6 by each digit of the multiplicand 385, from right to left.
Multiply the ones digit (6) of the multiplicator by the number in the ones place value:
6×5=30
Write 0 in the ones place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 3 to the tens place.
| Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 3 | ||||
| 3 | 8 | 5 | ||
| × | 6 | |||
| 0 |
Multiply the ones digit (6) of the multiplicator by the number in the tens place value and add the carried number (3):
6×8+3=51
Write 1 in the tens place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 5 to the hundreds place.
| Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 5 | 3 | |||
| 3 | 8 | 5 | ||
| × | 6 | |||
| 1 | 0 |
Multiply the ones digit (6) of the multiplicator by the number in the hundreds place value and add the carried number (5):
6×3+5=23
Write 3 in the hundreds place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 2 to the thousands place.
| Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 2 | 5 | 3 | ||
| 3 | 8 | 5 | ||
| × | 6 | |||
| 2 | 3 | 1 | 0 |
The solution is: 2,310
