What is 25 × 20?

Answer

25 × 20 =
500

One partial product: the only non-zero digit of 20 is 2, and it stands for 2 × 10: 25 × 20 = 500. 20 × 25 gives the same 500.

In the column: product 500.

Step by step: 25 × 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: 25 × 20 = 500.
    • 5 × 2 = 10. Write 0 and carry 1.
    • 2 × 2 = 4, plus the carried 1 makes 5. Write 5.
