112*5^4 = (100+12) *625.

Use formula (a+b) *c = (a*c) + (b*c).

(100+12) *625 = (100*625) + (12*625).

= 62500+7500.

= 70000.

Addition is simpler than multiplication,

(100+10+2)*(25*25)
=(100+10+2)*[25(20+5)]
=(100+10+2)*[500+125]
=(100+10+2)*625
=62500+6250+1250
=70000

The most easy method is
we all know that 5^4=(5^2)*(5^2)
=25*25=625

and then we multiple this answer with 112
i.e., (112*625)=70000

112*5^4 =112*(5*5*5*5)

=112*(625)

=70000

or

112*5^4 = 112*(10/2)^4

= 112*(10000/16)

= 1120000/16

= 70000

112/8*8*25*25

= 14*200*25

= 14*5000

= 70000

Easiest way is 112*5*5*5*5=70000.

I have used multiplied 5 four times because they have given 5 to the power of 4 hence you can use it in a simplest manner by multiplying 5 four times.

I did not multiply these numbers to get the answer. The simplest method is to find the number of zeros. See here we have four 5 and we can have fours 2, which when multiplied will give maximum number of fours zeros. And there is only one option with 4 0's that is 7000. :).

(100+12) (5*5*5*5).
(100+12) (625) .

100*625 = 62500 + 12*625 = 7500.

Answer = 70000.

How this 10/2 come from? Please reply with a easy method. Thank you.

Hi @Ritesh, Its simple man: your Q: 10/2.

You can divide this number 10/2 you will get answer 5.

We just take that form (10/2) for our convenient. Moreover you can take also 50/2 if you take, would be 25. That's all buddy.
