Sup, this is Mary and here is how you can multiply whole numbers.

 

 

1. Line up the digits.        34       

                                                *24

 

2. Multiply the number on the bottom

that is the farthest digit and the digit above it.  34

                                                                            * 24

                                       1                                         6

3. Carry the number.     34

                                         * 24

                                         6

 

                                                                                                                                                                                                    

4. Multiply the same bottom digit and the one that's left of the digit you just multiplied,               1

then add the carried                                                                                                                             34

number.                                                                                                                                                *24

                                                                                                                                                              136

 

5.add a zero    1

                        34

                     * 24 

                      136

                            0

 

6. multiply the digit to the left of the bottom digit you just used to the 1

digit farthest digit to the right                                                                  34

                                                                                                                  * 24

                                                                                                                    136

                                                                                                                                                   80

 

7. multiply the same bottom digit and the digit that left of the 1

digit on the top                                                                             34

                                                                                                   * 24

                                                                                                     136

                                                                                                     680 

 

8. add the answers you got               1

                                                                   34

                                                                 *  24

                                                       136

                                                    + 680

                                                       816   

 

 

and that is how you can multiply whole numbers.
