\n" ); document.write( "You have lots of choices of how to write the two given numbers 880 and 920 in expanded form.

\n" ); document.write( "Using multiplication patterns from algebra, surely the simplest way is

\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28900-20%29%28900%2B20%29+=+810000-400+=+809600\"$

\n" ); document.write( "You of course could also do

\n" ); document.write( " $\"%28800%2B80%29%28900%2B20%29+=+720000%2B16000%2B72000%2B1600\"$ = ...

\n" ); document.write( "but that is clearly a lot more work.
