Round #627

What is 17 times 24?

To solve \( 17 \times 24 \), you can use the standard multiplication algorithm: \[ \begin{array}{r} 17 \\ \times 24 \\ \hline 68 \\ +340 \\ \hline 408 \\ \end{array} \] So, \( 17 \times 24 = 408 \).

The product of 17 and 24 is 408. Here's how you can calculate it using C#: ```csharp using System; class Program { static void Main() { int number1 = 17; int number2 = 24; int result = Multiply(number1, number2); Console.WriteLine($"{number1} times {number2} is {result}"); } static int Multiply(int a, int b) { return a * b; } } ``` Explanation: - The `Main` method initializes two integers, `number1` and `number2`, with the values 17 and 24 respectively. - It then calls the `Multiply` method, passing in these two numbers as arguments. - The `Multiply` method takes two integers as parameters and returns their product using the multiplication operator (`*`). - Finally, the result is printed to the console.
