What is the greatest number of times you would regroup when multiplying a 3-digit factor by a 2-digit factor?

Answer

Ok, had to look around a little, but basically, what it means is how many times the product carries.

999

x99

====

Since 999 and 99 are the largest 3 and 2 digit numbers you can have, 4 is the maximum of times you would have to regroup.

Btw, apparently you can also have regrouping in addition, subtraction and division and you're right, it sure has changed since I was a kid. Answer
