How to calculate 30 multiplied by 17

How to calculate 30 multiplied by 17 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 30 times 17 using long multiplication:

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

	3	0
x	1	7

Step 2: Multiply
0 x 7 = 0. Put 0 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	3	0
x	1	7
		0

Step 3: Multiply
7 x 3 = 21. Take 21 and add 0 from the previous step to get 21. Enter 21 at the bottom:

		3	0
x		1	7
	2	1	0

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

		3	0
x		1	7
	2	1	0
+			0

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

		0
		3	0
x		1	7
	2	1	0
+		0	0

Step 6: Multiply
1 x 3 = 3. Take 3 and add 0 from the previous step to get 3. Enter 3 at the bottom:

		3	0
x		1	7
	2	1	0
+	3	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (210 + 300 = 510) to get the answer:

		3	0
x		1	7
	2	1	0
+	3	0	0
=	5	1	0

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 30 times 17 equals:

510
