Step 1
Given the diagonal matrix:
A=[300050000],B=[7000400012]
Step 2
Multiply the given matrix:
AB=[300050000][7000400012]
=[3(7)+00+0030+04+0030+00+0120(7)+(5)0+0000+(5)4+0000+(5)0+0120(7)+00+0000+04+0000+00+012]

=[21000200000] Since the multiplication of diagonal matrices is commutative.
That is
If A and B are diagonal matrices, then AB = BA.
Thus,
AB=BA=[21000200000]
