SYSE.43:5.1 - Restore the relation between a carry and its column

A person is interrupted after calculating 7 × 6 = 42 in 347 × 6. The retained worksheet should record the units result 2 and a carry of 4 into the tens column, with the original expression. A copied note preserves “2, 4” but drops their positions. That is a recording loss. Recover the original sheet when available, restore 2 under units and 4 above tens, then continue 4 × 6 + 4 = 28 and 3 × 6 + 2 = 20 to report 2082. If the original is unavailable, recompute the bounded units operation; do not guess what the two digits meant.

If the complete sheet was retained but the current view cropped away its carry row, repair the view through SYSE.52. If the correct sheet is supplied and the person still skips adding the carry, the receiving operation needs attention; recopying the sheet does not supply that performance. Stop with a usable record and resumed calculation. Later unaided retention is a separate HCD question.
