Let's solve the multiplication problems on this worksheet. The task is to
multiply 100 by a 1-digit number (or vice versa). Remember:
>
Multiplying any number by 100 adds two zeros to the end of that number.
So, for example:
- $ 6 \times 100 = 600 $
- $ 1 \times 100 = 100 $
- $ 100 \times 3 = 300 $
Now let’s go through each problem step by step.

First Row
1. $ 6 \times 100 = 600 $
2. $ 1 \times 100 = 100 $
3. $ 100 \times 1 = 100 $
4. $ 100 \times 5 = 500 $
---
Second Row
5. $ 100 \times 3 = 300 $
6. $ 3 \times 100 = 300 $
7. $ 100 \times 7 = 700 $
8. $ 7 \times 100 = 700 $

Third Row
9. $ 100 \times 4 = 400 $
10. $ 4 \times 100 = 400 $
11. $ 100 \times 9 = 900 $
12. $ 100 \times 2 = 200 $

Fourth Row
13. $ 9 \times 100 = 900 $
14. $ 5 \times 100 = 500 $
15. $ 8 \times 100 = 800 $
16. $ 100 \times 8 = 800 $

🔍 Explanation:
When you multiply any number by 100, you're essentially shifting the digits two places to the left and adding two zeros. This is because:
- $ 100 = 10^2 $
- So multiplying by 100 is like multiplying by 10 twice.
For instance:
- $ 6 \times 100 = 6 \times 10 \times 10 = 60 \times 10 = 600 $
This rule applies regardless of whether it's written as $ n \times 100 $ or $ 100 \times n $. Multiplication is commutative.
✔ So all answers follow the pattern:
"The 1-digit number followed by two zeros."
