Explanation

The chapter applies multiplication to a real-world context. For 174×6174 \times 6: Break 174 into 100 + 70 + 4. Then 100×6100 \times 6 = 600, 70×670 \times 6 = 420, 4×64 \times 6 = 24. Total = 600 + 420 + 24 = 1044 kulhads.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Total kulhads = 174 boxes × 6 kulhads per box

  2. Step 2: Break 174 into 100 + 70 + 4

  3. Step 3: 100×6100 \times 6 = 600 kulhads

  4. Step 4: 70×670 \times 6 = 420 kulhads

  5. Step 5: 4×64 \times 6 = 24 kulhads

  6. Step 6: Total = 600 + 420 + 24 = 1044 kulhads
