To find the product of 896 and 286 using the standard algorithm, we can set it up as follows:
896
x 286
________
We will multiply 896 by each digit of 286, starting from the rightmost digit.
-
Multiply 896 by 6 (the rightmost digit of 286):
896 x 6 __________ 5376 (This is 896 * 6)
-
Multiply 896 by 8 (the second digit of 286, which is actually 80):
896 x 80 __________ 71680 (This is 896 * 8, shifted one position to the left)
-
Multiply 896 by 2 (the leftmost digit of 286, which is actually 200):
896 x 200 __________ 179200 (This is 896 * 2, shifted two positions to the left)
Now we add all these partial results together:
5376
71680
+179200
_________
256256
The final product of \( 896 \times 286 \) is 256,256.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
256,256
