So this problem is almost complete. (I know you know that, just stating it.)

SO it appears that they have already determind that 5 12's could be divided into the hundreds place and 6 12's could be divided into the ten's place.

All we need to do is multiply 6 x 12 to find out what is missing from the box.

6 x 12 = ? Start with 6 times 2 - which is 12. Carry your ten. Multiply 6 times 10 and add the carried 10. The product is 72. When you place it in the box, you put the 7 under the 8 and the 2 under the 3 and THEN you need to add a zero to the end of your number making it 720.

If you were to continue the problem, you would subtract 720 from 839 and continue diving 12's into the remainder.

good job
