Question

multiply.
175 × 8 = □

Explanation:

Step1: Break down 175

We can write 175 as \(100 + 70+ 5\).

Step2: Multiply each part by 8

• Multiply 100 by 8: \(100\times8 = 800\)
• Multiply 70 by 8: \(70\times8=560\)
• Multiply 5 by 8: \(5\times8 = 40\)

Step3: Add the results

Add the three products together: \(800 + 560+40\). First, \(800+560 = 1360\), then \(1360 + 40=1400\).

Answer:

1400
