Solve 21x77

$$21 x 77$$

Evaluate

$$21x_{77}$$

Steps For Long Multiplication

First line up the numbers vertically and match the places from the right like this.

$$\begin{array}{c}\phantom{\times99}21\\\underline{\times\phantom{99}77}\\\end{array}$$

Now multiply the first number with the 1^{st} digit in 2^{nd} number to get intermediate results. That is Multiply 21 with 7. Write the result 147 at the end leaving 0 spaces to the right like this.

$$\begin{array}{c}\phantom{\times99}21\\\underline{\times\phantom{99}77}\\\phantom{\times9}147\\\end{array}$$

Now multiply the first number with the 2^{nd} digit in 2^{nd} number to get intermediate results. That is Multiply 21 with 7. Write the result 147 at the end leaving 1 spaces to the right like this.

$$\begin{array}{c}\phantom{\times99}21\\\underline{\times\phantom{99}77}\\\phantom{\times9}147\\\underline{\phantom{\times}147\phantom{9}}\\\end{array}$$

Now add the intermediate results to get final answer.

$$\begin{array}{c}\phantom{\times99}21\\\underline{\times\phantom{99}77}\\\phantom{\times9}147\\\underline{\phantom{\times}147\phantom{9}}\\\phantom{\times}1617\end{array}$$

Differentiate w.r.t. x_77

$$21$$

Steps Using Definition of a Derivative

The derivative of ax^{n} is nax^{n-1}.

$$21x_{77}^{1-1}$$

Subtract 1 from 1.

$$21x_{77}^{0}$$

For any term t except 0, t^{0}=1.

$$21\times 1$$

For any term t, t\times 1=t and 1t=t.

$$21$$
