🛎️ What is Long Multiplication?
- Long multiplication splits a large multiplication into smaller digit-by-digit steps.
- You multiply each digit, then add the results together to get the final answer.
🛎️ Key Reminders to Avoid Mistakes
- Each new row starts one place further left because the value is 10 times bigger.
- Always check column alignment. Misaligned columns give the wrong answer.
