What do the diagonal lines in a lattice multiplication grid represent?

Back

They separate the tens and units of the products of the digits being multiplied.

Front

What is the first step in lattice multiplication?

Back

Multiply each digit of the first number by each digit of the second number and write the products in the corresponding boxes.
