We can use repeated addition to multiply large numbers.

For example, suppose we have the following multiplication problem:

80 \times 5 = {\color{blue}{400}}

Let's use this result to generate some more multiplication facts:

  • We can find 81\times 5 by adding 5 to this result: 81 \times 5 = {\color{blue}{400}} + 5 ={\color{red}{405}}

  • We can find 82\times 5 by adding 5 to the previous result: 82 \times 5 = {\color{red}{405}} + 5 ={\color{purple}{410}}

  • We can find 83\times 5 by adding 5 to the previous result: 83 \times 5 = {\color{purple}{410}} + 5 ={\color{black}{415}}

And so on.

We can visualize this process using a number line diagram.

Note that {\color{blue}{400}}, 405, 410, 415, , etc, are all multiples of 5.

You're given the following multiplication problem: 90 \times 2 = 180 Use this to find the value of 92 \times 2.

EXPLANATION

We start with the given multiplication problem: 90 \times 2 = {\color{blue}{180}}

We can find the correct answer for 92 \times 2 using repeated addition: \begin{align*} 91 \times 2 & = {\color{blue}{180}} + 2 ={\color{red}{182}}\\[10pt] 92 \times 2 & = {\color{red}{182}} + 2 = 184 \end{align*}

Therefore, 92 \times 2 = 184.

You're given the following multiplication problem: 110 \times 7 = 770 Use this to find the value of 113 \times 7.

EXPLANATION

We start with the given multiplication problem: 110 \times 7 = {\color{blue}{770}}

We can find the correct answer for 113 \times 7 using repeated addition: \begin{align*} 111 \times 7 & = {\color{blue}{770}} + 7 = {\color{red}{777}}\\[10pt] 112 \times 7 & = {\color{red}{777}} + 7 = {\color{purple}{784}} \\[10pt] 113 \times 7 & = {\color{purple}{784}} + 7 = 791 \end{align*}

Therefore, 113 \times 7 = 791.

You're given the following multiplication problem: 1,200 \times 5 = 6,000 Use this to find the value of 1,204 \times 5.

EXPLANATION

We start with the given multiplication problem: 1,200 \times 5 = {\color{blue}{6,000}}

We can find the correct answer for 1,204 \times 5 using repeated addition:

\begin{align*} 1,201 \times 5 & = {\color{blue}{6,000}} + 5 = {\color{red}{6,005}}\\[10pt] 1,202 \times 5 & = {\color{red}{6,005}} + 5 = {\color{purple}{6,010}} \\[10pt] 1,203 \times 5 & = {\color{purple}{6,010}} + 5 = {\color{magenta}{6,015}}\\[10pt] 1,204 \times 5 & = {\color{magenta}{6,015}} + 5 = 6,020 \end{align*}

Therefore, 1,204 \times 5 = 6,020.
