How to calculate 32 multiplied by 26

How to calculate 32 multiplied by 26 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 32 times 26 using long multiplication:

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

	3	2
x	2	6

Step 2: Multiply
2 x 6 = 12. Put 2 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	3	2
x	2	6
		2

Step 3: Multiply
6 x 3 = 18. Take 18 and add 1 from the previous step to get 19. Enter 19 at the bottom:

		3	2
x		2	6
	1	9	2

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

		3	2
x		2	6
	1	9	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 2 = 4. Put 4 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

		0
		3	2
x		2	6
	1	9	2
+		4	0

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

		3	2
x		2	6
	1	9	2
+	6	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (192 + 640 = 832) to get the answer:

		3	2
x		2	6
	1	9	2
+	6	4	0
=	8	3	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 32 times 26 equals:

832
