Grid Multiplication With Cell-Side Workings
This animation demonstrates the box (grid) method for multiplying multi-digit numbers, splitting each factor into place values and filling a grid of partial products. Each partial calculation appears directly beside its corresponding cell instead of in a separate summary area, making it easier to trace which digits produced which result. Useful for teachers introducing multiplication strategies and students building number sense before moving to standard algorithms.

The prompt that made it
The detailed calculation is in too bottom of animation.. Pls show it near in multiplication cell
Make the next one in this series
- Animate the standard column multiplication algorithm alongside the grid method for comparison
- Show grid multiplication extended to multiplying two 3-digit numbers
- Create an animation of the lattice multiplication method with step-by-step cell fills
