Answer: Option (C)
How to Solve

  1. Multiply 3 x 3 = 9. Note down 9 then,
  2. Do Cross-multiplication (4 x 3) = 12 and (6 x 3) = 18.
  3. Add both the result (4 x 3 + 6 x 3) = 30 and write down 0 to the left of 9 and carry 3.
  4. Multiply left hand side numbers (4 x 6) = 24 and add carry (24 + 3) = 27 and write down to the left of 0.
    Finally the result we get is 2709. (Try to calculate all four steps in mind).

    not getting solution for 21 * 35????

    1*5=5
    2*3=6 5*1=5
    1 carry and 15
    3*2=6 + carry 1 i.e. 7
    715 ?????
    but ans is 735

    • Dr R K Shakya says:

      21*35=
      1*5=5
      (3*!=3)and(5*2=10) so 3+10=13 write 3 left to 5 and take 1 carry
      now 3*2=6 and then 6+1=7 so the ans is 735

    • veera babu says:

      21*35
      1*5=5 please place it in the last and
      do cross multiplication like this
      21
      35
      2*5 & 3*1
      not like this 2*3& 1*5
      10+3=13
      place 3 in left of 5
      and finally multiply 2*3 and add 1 as carry then answer is 735
