What is 100 × 40?

Answer

100 × 40 =
4,000

One partial product: the only non-zero digit of 40 is 4, and it stands for 4 × 10: 100 × 40 = 4,000. 40 × 100 gives the same 4,000.

In the column: product 4,000.

Step by step: 100 × 40

  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 4, and it stands for 40: 100 × 40 = 4,000.
    • 0 × 4 = 0. Write 0.
    • 0 × 4 = 0. Write 0.
    • 1 × 4 = 4. Write 4.

How do you check that 100 × 40 = 4,000?

Divide the product back by one of the factors: 4,000 ÷ 40 = 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 × 40?
