What is 75 × 20?

Answer

75 × 20 =
1,500

One partial product: the only non-zero digit of 20 is 2, and it stands for 2 × 10: 75 × 20 = 1,500. 20 × 75 gives the same 1,500.

In the column: product 1,500.

Step by step: 75 × 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: 75 × 20 = 1,500.
    • 5 × 2 = 10. Write 0 and carry 1.
    • 7 × 2 = 14, plus the carried 1 makes 15. Write 5 and carry 1.
    • No digits are left, so the carried 1 is written in front: the partial product is 150.

FAQ

What is 75 × 20?

75 × 20 = 1,500

Is 75 × 20 the same as 20 × 75?

Yes. Multiplication is commutative, so both come to 1,500. Only the working differs: this page multiplies by 20, which gives a single partial product.

How do you check that 75 × 20 = 1,500?

Divide the product back by one of the factors: 1,500 ÷ 20 = 75 exactly, with no remainder. Multiplication and division undo each other, which is what makes this check work.

What are the partial products of 75 × 20?
