​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given: A student multiplied 1234 by 67 instead of multiplying by 76

To find: By how much was his answer lesser than the correct answer.

Solution:

Now we have given a number 1234 which should be multiplied by 76, so:

            1234 multiplied by 76 is:

            1234 x 76  = 93784

But it is multiplied by 67, so

            1234 multiplied by 67 is:

            1234 x 67  = 82678

Now the difference in answer will be:

            93784 - 82678

             11,106

Answer:

           So, his answer was 11,106 lesser than the correct answer.
