How to calculate 18 multiplied by 13

How to calculate 18 multiplied by 13 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 18 times 13 using long multiplication:

Step 1: Setup
Set up your multiplication problem like this:

	1	8
x	1	3

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 3 = 24. Put 4 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

	2
	1	8
x	1	3
		4

Step 3: Multiply
3 x 1 = 3. Take 3 and add 2 from the previous step to get 5. Enter 5 at the bottom:

	1	8
x	1	3
	5	4

Step 4: Add 0
Enter a 0 at the bottom right as a place holder, because you now move over one digit:

	1	8
x	1	3
	5	4
+		0

Step 5: Multiply
1 x 8 = 8. Put 8 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	1	8
x	1	3
	5	4
+	8	0

Step 6: Multiply
1 x 1 = 1. Take 1 and add 0 from the previous step to get 1. Enter 1 at the bottom:

		1	8
x		1	3
		5	4
+	1	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (54 + 180 = 234) to get the answer:

		1	8
x		1	3
		5	4
+	1	8	0
=	2	3	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 18 times 13 equals:

234
