Step-by-step explanation:

First no. is 12

Second no. is 8

Third no. of 25

Way 1 of grouping the numbers,

(12×8)×25

We can use associative law of multiplication as follows :

(a×b)×c = a×(b×c)

(12×8)×25 = (96) × 25

= 2400

Way 2,

12×(8×25) = 12 × 200

= 2400

Way 2 is easier to simplify because when we multiply 8 and 25, we get 200. It is very easy to multiply any number with a number that have zeroes. As a result we easily get the answer i.e. 2400.
