can anyone help me with parcial products?
I assume you mean partial products. Yes. However, the fractions are tough to type on screen, and very difficult to follow.

Of course, I'd be happy to help you with partial products!
To understand partial products, you need to first understand the concept of multiplication. Multiplication is essentially a way of adding several equal groups together. When we multiply two numbers, we are finding the total number of objects in the combined groups.
Partial products is a method used in multiplication to break down the process into smaller, more manageable steps. Instead of performing the traditional vertical multiplication (also known as the standard algorithm), partial products involves breaking down the numbers into smaller units and then adding them up.
To calculate partial products, follow these steps:
Step 1: Break down the numbers.
Write the two numbers being multiplied horizontally, and break them down into their place values. For example, if you are multiplying 25 by 13, you would break them down as:
20 + 5
x 10 + 3
Step 2: Multiply each digit.
Multiply each digit in the ones place of the first number by each digit in the ones place of the second number. Then, multiply each digit in the tens place of the first number by each digit in the ones place of the second number. Finally, multiply each digit in the ones place of the first number by each digit in the tens place of the second number. Use the multiplication algorithm you are familiar with for each individual multiplication.
Step 3: Add the partial products.
Add up all the individual products you obtained in the previous step to get the final product.
Let's go through an example using the numbers 25 and 13:
Step 1:
20 + 5
x 10 + 3
Step 2:
20 x 10 = 200
20 x 3 = 60
5 x 10 = 50
5 x 3 = 15
Step 3:
200 + 60 + 50 + 15 = 325
So, 25 multiplied by 13 is equal to 325 when using the partial products method.
I hope this explanation helps! Let me know if you have any further questions.
