30000 times 12

Steps to Solve

1. Identification of factors to multiply

The two numbers to be multiplied are 30000 and 12.

2. Perform multiplication

To multiply these numbers, you can multiply the significant digits and then append the appropriate number of zeros.

$$ 30000 \times 12 $$

We can break it down further to simplify:

$$ 30000 = 3 \times 10000 $$

So,

$$ (3 \times 10000) \times 12 = 3 \times 12 \times 10000 $$

3. Calculation of simplified components

First, multiply the significant digits:

$$ 3 \times 12 = 36 $$

Then, append the four zeros from the original 30000 value:

$$ 36 \times 10000 = 360000 $$

4. Verify the result

Ensure the multiplication was done correctly (12 groups of 30000 equals 360000).
