304<sub>5</sub>*34<sub>5</sub>

Do an ordinary multiplication, except carry whenever there is 5 (and not 10).

The format at this site does not allow digits to be aligned, so there is no point showing the multiplication.

A simple case could be:
12<sub>5</sub>*4<sub>5</sub>
4*2=8=13<sub>5</sub>
4*1=4<sub>5</sub>+carry=10<sub>5</sub>
So the answer is 103<sub>5</sub>.
