            Example  :  A factory produces 9524 packets of biscuits in a day. How many packets

                            can it produce in a year, if there are 297 working days in the factory ?

            Solution   :  Number of packets produced in 1 day = 9524

                          Number of working days =  297
                          Now,
                                                      9 5 2 4
                                                      ×  2 9 7

                                                 6 6 6 6 8

                                      +       8 5 7 1 6 ×

                                      +  1 9 0        4 8 ×  ×

                                         2 8 2 8 6 2 8



                            Thus, the total number of packets produced in a year is 2828628.

            Example  :  There are 596 bangles in a packet. If 19378344 bangles are to be packed
                            equally, find the number of packets required.

            Solution       :    Number of bangles = 19378344

                                Each packet contains 596 bangles.

                                \ Number of packets will be :

                                                   8 3 4 0

                                                 – 5 9 6 0
                                                   2 3 8 4

                                                 – 2 3 8 4

                                                       0

                              Thus, the required number of packets is 32514.
