What is partial product method for 34x26?
The partial product method for multiplying 34 by 26 involves breaking down each number into its place values and then multiplying each part separately. For 34, you can separate it into 30 and 4; for 26, into 20 and 6. Then, you calculate the products: 30 x 20 = 600, 30 x 6 = 180, 4 x 20 = 80, and 4 x 6 = 24. Finally, you add all the partial products together: 600 + 180 + 80 + 24 = 884.
