To solve \( 16 \times 16 \), we'll break it down step by step and fill in Jade's missing work.

  1. First, compute the units place:

    • \( 6 \times 6 = 36 \)
    • Write down 6 in the units place and carry over 3.
  2. Now move to the tens place:

    • \( 1 \times 6 = 6 \) (adding the carryover, \( 6 + 3 = 9 \))
    • So, write down 9 next to the 6.
  3. Now compute the next row (which is \( 16 \times 10 \)):

    • The calculation involves \( 16 \) (from \( 16 \times 10 \)):
    • Write down \( 1 (tens) \) and \( 6 (units) \), but since we are multiplying by 10, we perform the multiplication directly.
    • This means we shift to the left by one place, giving us \( 160 \).

Putting it all together, the completed multiplication looks like this:

     1   6
   ×     1   6
   ___________
       6   6  (6 × 16)
   + 1   6   0  (16 × 10)
   ___________
     2  5  6 

Thus, the output for Jade's work would be filled as follows:

1	6
×		1	6
     ___________
   +	1	6	0

The answer \( 16 \times 16 = 256 \). So, the digits filled in for the missing work are:

  • First row: \( 6 \) in the unit's place and \( 9 \) in the ten's place (implying carryover).
  • Second row: \( 1 \) for the hundred's place (from 160).
