over. Multiply 2 x 4 = 8 + 0 (carry over) = 8, write 8 next to 7, no number to carry over
.Multiply 2 x 2 = 4 + 0 (carry over) = 4, write 4 next to 8, no number to carry over. So,
the product of 2437 x 2tens = 4874tens = 48740.

Step 4: Multiply 2437 by 3, that is the number given in the hundreds place, but place a
zero or cross (x) in the ones and tens place column, since this part of the multiplication
is a number of hundreds. Multiply 3 by 7 we get 21, write 1 in the hundred column and
carry over 2 to the next place. Now multiply 3 x 3 = 9 + 2 (carry over) =11, write 1 next
to 1, carry over 1 to the next place. Multiply 3 x 4 = 12 + 1 (carry over) = 13, write 3 next
to 1, carry over 1 to the next place. Multiply 3 x 2 = 6 + 1 (carry over) = 7, write 7 next to
3, no number to carry over. So, the product of 2437 x 3hundred = 7311hundreds =
731100.

Step 5: Now add all product. (9748 + 48740 +731100) =

Step 6: Hence the final product is 789588.
