1. The problem is to multiply 201 by 112. 2. The formula for multiplication is $a \times b = c$, where $a$ and $b$ are the numbers to multiply, and $c$ is the product. 3. Multiply 201 by 112 step-by-step: $$201 \times 112 = 201 \times (100 + 10 + 2)$$ 4. Distribute multiplication: $$= 201 \times 100 + 201 \times 10 + 201 \times 2$$ 5. Calculate each term: $$201 \times 100 = 20100$$ $$201 \times 10 = 2010$$ $$201 \times 2 = 402$$ 6. Add the results: $$20100 + 2010 + 402 = 22512$$ 7. Therefore, the product of 201 and 112 is $22512$.
