| 10 | 7 | |
|---|---|---|
| 6 | 10X6 | 7X6 |
| 60 | 42 |
60 + 42 = 102
Therefore, 17 × 6 = 102
Hence, there are 102 students.

Guess the answer on your own.
a) Split the numbers and multiply as:
42 = 40 + 2, and 23 = 20 + 3
| 40 | 2 | |
|---|---|---|
| 20 | 40 × 20 = 800 | 2 × 20 = 40 |
| 3 | 40 × 3 = 120 | 2 × 3 = 6 |
| Total=800+120= 920 | Total = 46 |
920 + 46 = 966
Therefore, 42 × 23 = 966
b) Split the numbers and multiply as:
73 = 70 + 3, and 11 = 10 + 1
| 70 | 3 | |
|---|---|---|
| 10 | 70 × 10 = 700 | 3 × 10 = 30 |
| 1 | 70 × 1 = 70 | 3 × 1 = 3 |
| Total=700 + 70= 770 | Total = 33 |
770 + 33 = 803
