What is 12 × 10?

Answer

12 × 10 =
120

One partial product: the only non-zero digit of 10 is 1, and it stands for 1 × 10: 12 × 10 = 120. 10 × 12 gives the same 120.

In the column: product 120.

Step by step: 12 × 10

  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 1, and it stands for 10: 12 × 10 = 120.

Yes. Multiplication is commutative, so both come to 120. Only the working differs: this page multiplies by 10, which gives a single partial product.

How do you check that 12 × 10 = 120?

Divide the product back by one of the factors: 120 ÷ 10 = 12 exactly, with no remainder. Multiplication and division undo each other, which is what makes this check work.
