6×172

6×172 refers to a mathematical multiplication problem. It is the product of the integer 6 and the integer 172. To calculate this product, one can perform the standard multiplication algorithm. Multiplying 6 by the units digit of 172, which is 2, results in 12. The 2 is placed in the units column, and the 1 is carried over to the tens column. Next, 6 is multiplied by the tens digit of 172, which is 7, yielding 42. Adding the carried-over 1 to 42 gives 43. The 3 is placed in the tens column, and the 4 is carried over to the hundreds column. Finally, 6 is multiplied by the hundreds digit of 172, which is 1, resulting in 6. Adding the carried-over 4 to 6 gives 10. The 0 is placed in the hundreds column, and the 1 is placed in the thousands column. Therefore, the result of 6×172 is 1032. This operation is a fundamental arithmetic calculation used in various mathematical contexts, from elementary education to more advanced applications.
