Question

A student multiplied 7236 by 65 instead of multiplying by 56. By how much was his
answer greater than the correct answer? (Hint: Do you need to do both the
multiplications)
​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

7,236×65 = 470,340

7,236×56 = 405,216

470,340 - 405,216 = 65,124

hence, his answer is 65124 greater than the correct answer
