Multiplying Whole Numbers

Multiplication of whole numbers is used by everyone. For example, to double a recipe, a cook multiplies the amount of each ingredient by two. To determine the floor space of a dining room, a carpeting salesperson multiplies its length by its width. An accountant multiplies the number of hours worked by the hourly pay rate to calculate the weekly earnings of employees.

1 Multiply whole numbers by one-digit numbers.

In the following display, there are 4 rows, and each of the rows has 5 stars.

4 rows

5 stars in each row

We can find the total number of stars in the display by adding: 5 5 5 5 20. This problem can also be solved using a simpler process called multiplication.

Multiplication is repeated addition, and it is written using a multiplication symbol , which is read as “times.” Instead of adding four 5’s to get 20, we can multiply 4 and 5 to get 20.

Repeated addition

Multiplication

 

5 + 5 + 5 + 5

= 4 5 = 20

Read as “4 times 5 equals (or is) 20.”

We can write multiplication problems in horizontal or vertical form. The numbers that are being multiplied are called factors and the answer is called the product.

To multiply whole numbers that are less than 10, we rely on our understanding of basic multiplication facts. For example,

2 3 6, 8(4) 32, and 9 7 63

If you need to review the basic multiplication facts, they can be found in Appendix 1 at the back of the book.

1.4 Multiplying Whole Numbers

41

To multiply larger whole numbers, we can use vertical form by stacking them with their corresponding place values lined up. Then we make repeated use of basic multiplication facts.

EXAMPLE 1 Multiply: 8 47

Strategy We will write the multiplication in vertical form. Then, working right to left, we will multiply each digit of 47 by 8 and carry, if necessary.

WHY This process is simpler than treating the problem as repeated addition and adding eight 47’s.

Solution

To help you understand the process, each step of this multiplication is explained separately. Your solution need only look like the last step.

2 Multiply whole numbers that end with zeros.

An interesting pattern develops when a whole number is multiplied by 10, 100, 1,000 and so on. Consider the following multiplications involving 8:

8 10

8

0

 

There is one zero in 10. The product is 8 with

 

 

 

 

 

one 0 attached.

8 100

There are two zeros in 100. The product is 8 with

 

 

 

 

 

two 0’s attached.

There are three zeros in 1,000. The product is 8 with

 

 

 

 

 

three 0’s attached.

,000

,000

There are four zeros in 10,000. The product is 8 with

 

 

 

 

 

four 0’s attached.

These examples illustrate the following rule.

Multiplying by 10, 100, 1,000, and So On

Self Check 1

EXAMPLE 2 Multiply: a. 6 1,000 b. 45 100 c. 912(10,000)

Strategy For each multiplication, we will identify the factor that ends in zeros and count the number of zeros that it contains.

WHY Each product can then be found by attaching that number of zeros to the other factor.

Solution

a.

6 1,000 6,000

Since 1,000 has three zeros, attach three 0’s after 6.

 

b.

45 100 4,500

Since 100 has two zeros, attach two 0’s after 45.

 

c.

912(10,000) 9,120,000

Since 10,000 has four zeros, attach four 0’s after 912.

 

 

We can use an approach similar to that of Example 2 for multiplication involving any whole numbers that end in zeros. For example, to find 67 2,000, we have

67 2,000 67 2 1,000

Write 2,000 as 2 1,000.

134 1,000

Working left to right, multiply 67 and 2 to get 134.

134,000

Since 1,000 has three zeros, attach three 0’s

 

after 134.

This example suggests that to find 67 2,000 we simply multiply 67 and 2 and attach three zeros to that product. This method can be extended to find products of two factors that both end in zeros.

EXAMPLE 3 Multiply: a. 14 300 b. 3,500 50,000

Strategy We will multiply the nonzero leading digits of each factor. To that product, we will attach the sum of the number of trailing zeros in the factors.

WHY This method is faster than the standard vertical form multiplication of factors that contain many zeros.

Solution

a. The factor 300 has two trailing zeros.

14 300 4,200 Attach two 0’s after 42.

3 Multiply whole numbers by two- (or more) digit numbers.

EXAMPLE 4 Multiply: 23 436

Strategy We will write the multiplication in vertical form. Then we will multiply 436 by 3 and by 20, and add those products.

WHY Since 23 3 20, we can multiply 436 by 3 and by 20, and add those products.

Multiply 4 by 3. The product is 12. Add the 12 to the carried 1 to get 13. Write 13.

We continue by multiplying 436 by 2 tens, or 20. If we think of 20 as 2 10, then we simply multiply 436 by 2 and attach one zero to the result.

Multiply 3 by 2. The product is 6. Add 6 to the carried 1 to get 7. Write the 7 in the hundreds column. There is no carry.

Multiply 4 by 2. The product is 8. There is no carried digit to add. Write the 8 in the thousands column.

Draw another line beneath the two completed rows. Add column by column, working right to left. This sum gives the product of 435 and 23.

The product is 10,028.

Self Check 5

Multiply:

a.706(351)

b.4,004(2,008)

Now Try Problem 41

When a factor in a multiplication contains one or more zeros, we must be careful to enter the correct number of zeros when writing the partial products.

EXAMPLE 5 Multiply: a. 406 253 b. 3,009(2,007)

Strategy We will think of 406 as 6 400 and 3,009 as 9 3,000.

WHY Thinking of the multipliers (406 and 3,009) in this way is helpful when determining the correct number of zeros to enter in the partial products.

Solution

We will use vertical form to perform each multiplication.

a.Since 406 6 400, we will multiply 253 by 6 and by 400, and add those partial products.

253

400 253. Think of 400 as 4 100 and simply multiply 253 by 4

102,718

 

and attach two zeros (shown in blue) to the result.

The product is 102,718.

b.Since 3,009 9 3,000, we will multiply 2,007 by 9 and by 3,000, and add those partial products.

2,007

6,039,063

 

2,007 by 3 and attach three zeros (shown in blue) to the result.

The product is 6,039,063.

4 Use properties of multiplication to multiply whole numbers.

Have you ever noticed that two whole numbers can be multiplied in either order because the result is the same? For example,

4 6 24 and 6 4 24

This example illustrates the commutative property of multiplication.

Commutative Property of Multiplication

The order in which whole numbers are multiplied does not change their product.

For example,

7 5 5 7

1.4 Multiplying Whole Numbers

45

Whenever we multiply a whole number by 0, the product is 0. For example,

0 5 0, 0 8 0, and 9 0 0

Whenever we multiply a whole number by 1, the number remains the same. For example,

3 1 3, 7 1 7, and 1 9 9

These examples illustrate the multiplication properties of 0 and 1.

Multiplication Properties of 0 and 1

The product of any whole number and 0 is 0.

The product of any whole number and 1 is that whole number.

Success Tip If one (or more) of the factors in a multiplication is 0, the product will be 0. For example,

16(27)(0) 0

and

109 53 0 2 0

To multiply three numbers, we first multiply two of them and then multiply that result by the third number. In the following examples, we multiply 3 2 4 in two ways. The parentheses show us which multiplication to perform first. The steps of the solutions are written in horizontal form.

The Language of Mathematics In the following example, read (3 2) 4 as “The quantity of 3 times 2,” pause slightly, and then say “times 4.” We read

3 (2 4) as “3 times the quantity of 2 times 4.” The word quantity alerts the reader to the parentheses that are used as grouping symbols.

Method 1: Group 3 2

(3 2) 4 6 4

Multiply 3 and 2 to

 

 

get 6.

24

Multiply 6 and 4 to

 

get 24.

 

 

 

 

Same result

 

 

Method 2: Group 2 4

3 (2 4) 3 8

Then multiply 2 and 4

 

to get 8.

24

Then multiply 3 and 8

 

to get 24.

Either way, the answer is 24.This example illustrates that changing the grouping when multiplying numbers doesn’t affect the result. This property is called the associative property of multiplication.

Associative Property of Multiplication

The way in which whole numbers are grouped does not change their product. For example,

(2 3) 5 2 (3 5)

Sometimes, an application of the associative property can simplify a calculation.

EXAMPLE 8
Daily Pay
Do the multiplication within the parentheses first. Since 100 has two zeros, attach two 0’s after 17.
Use the associative property of multiplication to regroup the factors.

EXAMPLE 6 Find the product: (17 50) 2

Strategy We will use the associative property to group 50 with 2.

WHY It is helpful to regroup because 50 and 2 are a pair of numbers that are easily multiplied.

Solution

We will write the solution in horizontal form. (17 50) 2 17 (50 2)

Bureau of Labor Statistics)

Now Try Problem 86

5 Estimate products of whole numbers.

Estimation is used to find an approximate answer to a problem.

EXAMPLE 7 Estimate the product: 59 334

Strategy We will use front-end rounding to approximate the factors 59 and 334. Then we will find the product of the approximations.

WHY Front-end rounding produces whole numbers containing many 0’s. Such numbers are easier to multiply.

Solution

Both of the factors are rounded to their largest place value so that all but their first digit is zero.

Round to the nearest ten.

59 334

60 300

Round to the nearest hundred.

To find the product of the approximations, 60 300, we simply multiply 6 by 3, to get 18, and attach 3 zeros. Thus, the estimate is 18,000.

If we calculate 59 334, the product is exactly 19,706. Note that the estimate is close: It’s only 1,706 less than 19,706.

6 Solve application problems by multiplying whole numbers.

Application problems that involve repeated addition are often more easily solved using multiplication.

In 2008, the average U.S. manufacturing worker made $18 per hour. At that rate, how much money was earned in an 8-hour workday? (Source: Bureau of Labor Statistics)

Strategy To find the amount earned in an 8-hour workday, we will multiply the hourly rate of $18 by 8.

WHY For each of the 8 hours, the average manufacturing worker earned $18. The amount earned for the day is the sum of eight 18’s: 18 18 18 18 18 18 18 18. This repeated addition can be calculated more simply by multiplication.

Solution

We translate the words of the problem to numbers and symbols.

We can use multiplication to count objects arranged in patterns of neatly arranged rows and columns called rectangular arrays.

The Language of Mathematics An array is an orderly arrangement. For example, a jewelry store might display a beautiful array of gemstones.

Pixels Refer to the illustration at the right. Small dots of color, called pixels, create the digital images seen on computer screens. If a 14-inch screen has 640 pixels from side to side and 480 pixels from top to bottom, how many pixels are displayed on the screen?

Pixel

R G

R G B R G

G B R G B R B R G B R G B G B R G B R R G B R G

R G

Strategy We will multiply 640 by 480 to determine the number of pixels that are displayed on the screen.

WHY The pixels form a rectangular array of 640 rows and 480 columns on the screen. Multiplication can be used to count objects in a rectangular array.

Solution

We translate the words of the problem to numbers and symbols.

The number of pixels

is equal to

the number of

times

the number of

pixels in a row

pixels in a column.

The number of pixels

To find the product of 640 and 480, we use vertical form to multiply 64 and 48 and attach two zeros to that result.

4864 192 2 880

3,072

Since the product of 64 and 48 is 3,072, the product of 640 and 480 is 307,200. The screen displays 307,200 pixels.

Strategy To find how much weight he lifted over his head, we will multiply his body weight by 3.

WHY We can use multiplication to determine the result when a quantity increases in size by 2 times, 3 times, 4 times, and so on.

Solution

We translate the words of the problem to numbers and symbols.

The amount he

lifted over his head was 3 times his body weight.

7 Find the area of a rectangle.

One important application of multiplication is finding the area of a rectangle.The area of a rectangle is the measure of the amount of surface it encloses. Area is measured in square units, such as square inches (written in.2) or square centimeters (written cm2), as shown below.

The rectangle in the figure below has a length of 5 centimeters and a width of 3 centimeters. Since each small square region covers an area of one square centimeter, each small square region measures 1 cm2.The small square regions form a rectangular pattern, with 3 rows of 5 squares.

5 cm

Because there are 5 3, or 15, small square regions, the area of the rectangle is 15 cm2.This suggests that the area of any rectangle is the product of its length and its width.

Area of a rectangle length width

By using the letter A to represent the area of the rectangle, the letter l to represent the length of the rectangle, and the letter w to represent its width, we can write this formula in simpler form. Letters (or symbols), such as A, l, and w, that are used to represent numbers are called variables.

Area of a Rectangle

The area, A, of a rectangle is the product of the rectangle’s length, l, and its width, w.

Area length width or A l w

The formula can be written more simply without the raised dot as A lw.

EXAMPLE 11

12 ft

Strategy We will substitute 12 for the length and 3 for the width in the formula for the area of a rectangle.

WHY To find the number of square feet of paper, we need to find the area of the rectangle shown in the figure.

Solution

We translate the words of the problem to numbers and symbols.
