Not gonna lie ... wasnt expecting a correct answer... The thought process and confirmation of the calculation were LONG and actually quite amazing to watch it deduce and then calculate in different ways to confirm
The product of 5,142,352 and 51,234 is calculated as follows:
1. Break down the multiplication using the distributive property: - (5,142,352 times 51,234 = (5,000,000 + 142,352) times (50,000 + 1,234))
2. Expand and compute each part: - (5,000,000 times 50,000 = 250,000,000,000) - (5,000,000 times 1,234 = 6,170,000,000) - (142,352 times 50,000 = 7,117,600,000) - (142,352 times 1,234 = 175,662,368)
3. Sum all parts: - (250,000,000,000 + 6,170,000,000 = 256,170,000,000) - (256,170,000,000 + 7,117,600,000 = 263,287,600,000) - (263,287,600,000 + 175,662,368 = 263,463,262,368)
Final Answer: 263463262368
