12 X 6
72
12 multiplied by 6 results in 72.
To compute this multiplication, start by multiplying the ones place digit of 6 with 12 which results in 2 with a carry of 1. Next, multiply the tens place digit of 6 with 12 followed by the result of the carry digit from the previous step. This multiplication results in 7 plus the carry from the previous step. The answer is 72, which has a 7 in the tens place and a 2 in the ones place.
Alternatively, you could use the commutative property of multiplication and multiply 6 with 12 in the following manner:
6 X 2 = 12 (write 2 and carry 1)
6 X 1 = 6 (add carry 1 to get 7)
So, 12 X 6 = 72.
