Here is an easy trick:
- To multiply a number by 10, simply add a zero.
- To multiply a number by 100, add two zeros.
Look at our earlier example again:

What if you aren’t multiplying by 10 or 100? The trick works with any multiple of ten.
You’ll have to multiply smaller numbers before you add your zeros.
Look at the example below:

You can find missing factors easily too!

3. See it in action.

4. Try it yourself.
No calculators!
