Solution - Long multiplication
2,142
Step-by-step explanation
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom aligned to the right
Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
7 | 1 | 4 | ||
× | 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 714, from right to left.
Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the ones place value:
3×4=12
Write 2 in the ones place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 1 to the tens place.
Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
1 | ||||
7 | 1 | 4 | ||
× | 3 | |||
2 |
Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the tens place value and add the carried number (1):
3×1+1=4
Write 4 in the tens place.
Place value | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
1 | ||||
7 | 1 | 4 | ||
× | 3 | |||
4 | 2 |
Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the hundreds place value:
3×7=21
Write 1 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 | 1 | |||
7 | 1 | 4 | ||
× | 3 | |||
2 | 1 | 4 | 2 |
The solution is: 2,142
