Evaluate 60^2

Problem

60

Solution

1. Identify the operation as squaring the number 60 which means multiplying the number by itself.

60=60×60

2. Apply the property of multiplication for numbers ending in zeros by multiplying the non-zero digits first.

6×6=36

3. Append the total number of zeros from the factors to the result of the multiplication. Since there are two zeros in 60×60 add two zeros to 36

36→3600

Final Answer

60=3600
