What is 50 × 12?

Answer

50 × 12 =
600

2 partial products: 50 × 2 = 100 and 50 × 10 = 500. 12 × 50 gives the same 600.

In the column: product 600.

Step by step: 50 × 12

  1. Step 1Multiply the multiplicand by the last digit of the multiplier, 2: 50 × 2 = 100.
    • 0 × 2 = 0. Write 0.
    • 5 × 2 = 10. Write 0 and carry 1.
    • No digits are left, so the carried 1 is written in front: the partial product is 100.
  2. Step 2The next digit of the multiplier is 1, and it stands for 10: 50 × 10 = 500.
    • 0 × 1 = 0. Write 0.
    • 5 × 1 = 5. Write 5.
  3. Sum of the partial products100 + 500 = 600
