Which shows a correct solution to 709 x 51

?

1 answer

To calculate \( 709 \times 51 \), you can break it down using the distributive property:

\[ 709 \times 51 = 709 \times (50 + 1) = 709 \times 50 + 709 \times 1 \]

Calculating each part:

  1. \( 709 \times 50 = 35450 \)
  2. \( 709 \times 1 = 709 \)

Now, add the two results together:

\[ 35450 + 709 = 36159 \]

Thus, the correct solution for \( 709 \times 51 \) is:

\[ \boxed{36159} \]
