    you are asked to find minimum uncertainty in position, for that uncertainty in momentum has to be maximum, that's why we are multiplying mass and velocity by assuming that uncertainty in momentum is equivalent to its numerical value. for example if you find velocity of ball to be 10 , then minimum uncertainty in your measurement can be 0(perfect measurement) and max can be equal to 10. so we are keeping maximum uncertainty in momentum to find minimum uncertainty in position. although my example is not accurate but it's just to give you some idea. In quantum everything is messy and we can't do anything about it.

    remember uncertainty is nothing but standard deviations.

    how could we find the uncertainty just multiplying the mass and velocity
