If we have practiced and hopefully memorized the multiplication tables and Multiplication Rules, then we can solve any multiplication problem. We just have to understand the system to how to do it. We know that multiplication is just repeated addition but if we have large numbers, we cannot add them repeatedly to get the solution. To multiply one digit number and two digit number with a one digit number is an easy process but multiplying two double digits numbers uses a different process that needs to be followed.
How to Multiply Two Digit Numbers - We will learn here how Double Digit Multiplication works. Let us start with an example of the multiplication problem of two double digits numbers. Let us do 16 times 19; we can break down the Two Digit Multiplication into series of steps which are given as follows: -
• In 2 Digit Multiplication, firstly we take the numbers present in ones place and multiply them together; in this case we multiply 9 times 6 which equal 54.
• With the product of the digits at ones that is 54, we only write the 4 down while multiplication and 5 is carried forward on the tenth place just like when we add two numbers.
• Then we multiply 9 times 1 which is 9 and then add 5, and which is 14 so the solution to 9 times 16 is 144. Thus 16 times 9 is 144.
• Then we take the digit on the tens place on one number that is one in the number 19 and multiply it with 16, which gives us 16.
Now we have two solutions, one is 144 and other is 16, to find the final answer we add a zero to the second solution and then add the solutions together. That means 16 will become 160 and then we add it to 144 which equals 304. So the solution of 16 times 19 is 304.
Only by using these breaking down method we have solved this big problem. To multiply two digit numbers we can either break the one double digit number into two digits. For example, in the previous example, we can break 19 into 1 and 9. 9 is at ones place so we can write it as 9 but 1 is at tens place so we can use its face value which is 10. Then we can multiply 9 by 16 which give us 144 and then we multiply 10 by 16 which equals 160. We can add both the solutions to get the solution 304.
