How to calculate 28 multiplied by 17

How to calculate 28 multiplied by 17 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 28 times 17 using long multiplication:

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

	2	8
x	1	7

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 7 = 56. Put 6 below the line and 5 as a reminder on top:

	5
	2	8
x	1	7
		6

Step 3: Multiply
7 x 2 = 14. Take 14 and add 5 from the previous step to get 19. Enter 19 at the bottom:

		2	8
x		1	7
	1	9	6

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

		2	8
x		1	7
	1	9	6
+			0

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

		0
		2	8
x		1	7
	1	9	6
+		8	0

Step 6: Multiply
1 x 2 = 2. Take 2 and add 0 from the previous step to get 2. Enter 2 at the bottom:

		2	8
x		1	7
	1	9	6
+	2	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (196 + 280 = 476) to get the answer:

		2	8
x		1	7
	1	9	6
+	2	8	0
=	4	7	6

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 28 times 17 equals:

476
