• And so interesting Numerals are symbols
• I love Math (2x) That is Math (2x)
Multiply the following numbers
 25 x 10 = 52 x 10 = 576 x 10 =

25 x 100 = 52 x 100 = 576 x 100 =

25 x 1000 = 52 x 1000 = 576 x 1000 =

264 x 10 = 43 x 10 = 92 x 10 =

264 x 100 = 43 x 100 = 92 x 100 =

264 x 1000 = 43 x 1000 = 92 x 1000 =
