$1,003\times 138$

Answer 1

Finding the product:

Given question is $1,003\times 138$ so we can apply distributive property to make simplification more easy.

$$\begin{gathered} 1,003\times 138 \\ =(1,000+3)\times 138 \\ =1,000\times 138+3\times 138 \\ =1,38,000+414 \\ =1,38,414 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the answer is $1,38,414$
