To find the product of 246 and 188 using the standard algorithm, we can follow the steps below:

2 4 6
× 1 8 8
_________________
1 8 4 8 <- This is the first partial product
+ 4 9 2 0 <- This is the second partial product
+ 1, 2 3 <- This is the third partial product
_________________
= 4 6 2 4 8 8

Now, let's break down the calculation for the partial products:

Product of the ones digit:
6 x 8 = 48

Product of the tens digit:
40 x 8 = 320

Product of the hundreds digit:
200 x 8 = 1600

Final product:
48 (ones digit's product)
320 (tens digit's product, shifted one place to the left)
1600 (hundreds digit's product, shifted two places to the left)
+ 4 6 2 4 8 8 (original product of 246 and 188)

The final product is 46,248.
