Question 4(b)

Find the product using suitable properties:

$854\times 102$

Answer 1

$854\times 102$

102 can be split as (100 + 2) as calculations with 100 makes it easier and faster.

= $854\times (100+2)$

Now, we can use the distributive property,

a×(b+c) = (a×b) + (a×c)

we get,
= $(854\times 100)+(854\times 2)$

= $85400+1708$

= $87108$
