How to calculate 29 multiplied by 26

How to calculate 29 multiplied by 26 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 29 times 26 using long multiplication:

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

	2	9
x	2	6

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 6 = 54. Put 4 below the line and 5 as a reminder on top:

	5
	2	9
x	2	6
		4

Step 3: Multiply
6 x 2 = 12. Take 12 and add 5 from the previous step to get 17. Enter 17 at the bottom:

		2	9
x		2	6
	1	7	4

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

		2	9
x		2	6
	1	7	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 9 = 18. Put 8 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 2 = 4. Take 4 and add 1 from the previous step to get 5. Enter 5 at the bottom:

		2	9
x		2	6
	1	7	4
+	5	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (174 + 580 = 754) to get the answer:

		2	9
x		2	6
	1	7	4
+	5	8	0
=	7	5	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 29 times 26 equals:
