@crooton1 ok 😋 *AHEM*

It started with the multiplication 370 * 42 I think what you did with it is not do the digits individually. I'm actually not sure what you did xD

Ok, On the left is the two side, and the right is the 40 side.

370 ******************370
x42 ******* +********* x42******= 15,540
----- ***************-------
740 ****************14800

So from there is the creatures * travels. Since there is the option of stars, you just double it. You had a snowball effect going there with the first multiplication, and with the stars you added instead of doubling. 😸

@Lizardfeather

I don't know what I did either. *Needs to go back to school.*

Thanks. 😋

@crooton1 I SEE IT NOW

Instead of carrying the 1 with the 14 of 2*7 you put it as 2 digits. 😋
What you had to do was carry it over to 2*3 and add the 1 you carried over, giving you the 7 in 7 4 0. I think you did that same kinda thing a few other times.

And you're welcome 😋

@Liardfeather

You lost me at 14. o.o

@crooton1

Ok so you know how to do the multiplication. You start with the 2 and multiply it by the top 3 numbers.

370*2

2*0=0 So the last digit is zero |--0
2*7=14 so you keep the 4 and carry over the 1 The second to last digit is 4 | -40
2*3=6 But you need to add the 1 you carry over so 6+1=7 | 740 is the number.

If that makes any sense 0.o This really is turning into a math topic xD

@LIzardfeather

Lost me at 2*0=0 this time. -.-
