601×31

601 × 31 is the product of the integers 601 and 31. It can be calculated using the distributive property: 601 × 31 = 601 × (30 + 1) = 601 × 30 + 601 = 18,030 + 601 = 18,631. Another valid approach is (600 + 1) × 31 = 600 × 31 + 1 × 31 = 18,600 + 31 = 18,631. The result is the five-digit integer 18,631.

In factor form, since 31 and 601 are both prime, the prime factorization of the product is 31 × 601. The number 18,631 is odd and not divisible by 2, 3, or 5. This multiplication serves as a straightforward example of basic integer multiplication and demonstrates how breaking one factor into a sum can simplify computation.
