What is 100 × 20?

Answer

100 × 20 =
2,000

One partial product: the only non-zero digit of 20 is 2, and it stands for 2 × 10: 100 × 20 = 2,000. 20 × 100 gives the same 2,000.

In the column: product 2,000.

Step by step: 100 × 20

  1. Step 1The last digit of the multiplier is 0, so this partial product is 0 and adds nothing to the total.
  2. Step 2The next digit of the multiplier is 2, and it stands for 20: 100 × 20 = 2,000.
    • 0 × 2 = 0. Write 0.
    • 0 × 2 = 0. Write 0.
    • 1 × 2 = 2. Write 2.

FAQ

What is 100 × 20?

100 × 20 = 2,000

Is 100 × 20 the same as 20 × 100?

Yes. Multiplication is commutative, so both come to 2,000. Only the working differs: this page multiplies by 20, which gives a single partial product.

How do you check that 100 × 20 = 2,000?

Divide the product back by one of the factors: 2,000 ÷ 20 = 100 exactly, with no remainder. Multiplication and division undo each other, which is what makes this check work.

What are the partial products of 100 × 20?

Only one of them counts: every other digit of 20 is a zero and contributes nothing, so the work comes down to 100 × 20 = 2,000, with nothing left to add.
