Answer

210

Step-by-step solution

4 steps
  1. Rewrite 21 as a sum to use the distributive property.

    10×21=10×(20+1)10 \times 21 = 10 \times (20 + 1)
  2. Apply the distributive property.

    10×(20+1)=(10×20)+(10×1)10 \times (20 + 1) = (10 \times 20) + (10 \times 1)
  3. Perform the multiplications.

    (10×20)+(10×1)=200+10(10 \times 20) + (10 \times 1) = 200 + 10
  4. Add the results.

    200+10=210200 + 10 = 210

    The final answer is 210.
