3 2

Answer 1

To solve the problem \( 32 \times 11 \), we can break it down as follows:

1. First, we multiply \( 32 \) by \( 1 \) (the units place of 11): \[ 32 \times 1 = 32 \]

2. Next, we multiply \( 32 \) by the other \( 1 \) (the tens place of 11): \[ 32 \times 1 = 32 \] Since this 1 is in the tens place, we write this as \( 320 \).

Now we add the two results together:

\[ 32 + 320 = 352 \]

Now we can fill in Suma's missing work:

     3   2
  ×   1   1
----------------
     3   2  (This is 32 × 1)
+   3   2   0  (This is 32 × 1, shifted left for the tens place)
----------------
  3   5   2  (Final result)

So the digits to fill in the boxes are:

• In the top row: 3 and 2 (representing 32)
• In the second row: 1 and 1 (representing 11)
• In the first part of the multiplication result: 3 and 2 (representing 32)
• In the second part of the multiplication result: 3, 2, and 0 (representing 320)
• In the final answer: 3, 5, and 2 (representing 352)

Final answer:

32 × 11 = 352
