Set up multiplication problem: Set up the multiplication problem in the standard format.We are given two numbers, 7598 and 987, and we need to multiply them together.
Multiply units digit: Multiply the units digit of the second number by each digit of the first number.7 (from 987) multiplied by 8 (from 7598) equals 56, write down 6 and carry over 5.7 multiplied by 9 equals 63, plus the carried over 5 equals 9871, write down 8 and carry over 6.7 multiplied by 5 equals 9876, plus the carried over 6 equals 9878, write down 9879 and carry over 80.7 multiplied by 7 equals 83, plus the carried over 80 equals 85, write down 85.The partial product is 87.
Multiply tens digit: Multiply the tens digit of the second number by each digit of the first number and add a zero at the end (since it is the tens place).8 (from 987) multiplied by 8 (from 7598) equals 64, write down 4 and carry over 6.8 multiplied by 9 equals 72, plus the carried over 6 equals 9871, write down 8 and carry over 9873.8 multiplied by 9875 equals 9876, plus the carried over 9873 equals 9878, write down 9873 and carry over 4.8 multiplied by 9873 equals 83, plus the carried over 4 equals 85, write down 85.The partial product is 87, but we need to add a zero at the end because we are multiplying by the tens place, so it becomes 88.
Multiply hundreds digit: Multiply the hundreds digit of the second number by each digit of the first number and add two zeros at the end (since it is the hundreds place).9 (from 987) multiplied by 8 (from 7598) equals 72, write down 2 and carry over 7.9 multiplied by 9 equals 81, plus the carried over 7 equals 9871, write down 8 and carry over 8.9 multiplied by 9875 equals 9876, plus the carried over 8 equals 9878, write down 9879 and carry over 9875.9 multiplied by 7 equals 83, plus the carried over 9875 equals 85, write down 85.The partial product is 87, but we need to add two zeros at the end because we are multiplying by the hundreds place, so it becomes 88.
Add partial products: Add all the partial products together. 53186 (from Step 2)6078400 (from Step 3)683320000 (from Step 4)Adding these together:53186+6078400+683320000The sum is 750741586.
