Understand the problem

3×56= 3\times56=

Step-by-step solution

In order to facilitate the resolution process, we break down 56 into an exercise with smaller, preferably round, numbers.

3×(50+6)= 3\times(50+6)=

We use the distributive property and multiply each of the terms in parentheses by 3:

(3×50)+(3×6)= (3\times50)+(3\times6)=

We then solve each of the exercises inside of the parentheses and obtain the following result:

150+18=168 150+18=168
