What is the product of 12 and 15?

  1. 160

  2. 180

  3. 150

  4. 200

The correct answer is: 180

The question asks for the product of 12 and 15. To find the product, you multiply the two numbers together. Calculating this, you can break it down into simpler steps: 1. First, multiply 12 by 10, which equals 120. 2. Then, multiply 12 by 5, which equals 60. 3. Finally, add those two results together: 120 + 60 = 180. Thus, the product of 12 and 15 is 180. This confirms that the correct answer is indeed the value represented by the second choice. This approach not only provides clarity in the multiplication process but also reaffirms the correct understanding of multiplying two numbers to determine their product.
