Step-by-step explanation
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom aligned to the right
Place value | ten thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
8 | 1 | 4 | 2 | ||
× | 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 8,142, from right to left.
Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the ones place value:
3×2=6
Write 6 in the ones place.
Place value | ten thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
8 | 1 | 4 | 2 | ||
× | 3 | ||||
6 |
Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the tens place value:
3×4=12
Write 2 in the tens place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 1 to the hundreds place.
Place value | ten thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |

2 | 6 |
Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the hundreds place value and add the carried number (1):
3×1+1=4
Write 4 in the hundreds place.
Place value | ten thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |

Multiply the ones digit (3) of the multiplicator by the number in the thousands place value:
3×8=24
Write 4 in the thousands place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 2 to the ten thousands place.
Place value | ten thousands | thousands | hundreds | tens | ones |
2 | 1 | ||||
8 | 1 | 4 | 2 | ||
× | 3 | ||||
2 | 4 | 4 | 2 | 6 |
The solution is: 24,426
