To multiply 789 by 75 using the standard algorithm, follow these steps:

  1. Write the numbers vertically, aligning them to the right:

  1. Now multiply by the digit in the tens place of 75 (which is 7). Since this represents 70, we will place a zero in the ones place:
     789
   ×  75
  _______
    3945   (this is for 5)
+ 5523    (this is 789 × 7; note the position)
  1. Add the two products together:
    3945
+ 55230
  _______
  59175

The product of 789 and 75 is 59,175.
