How to calculate 34 multiplied by 23

How to calculate 34 multiplied by 23 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 34 times 23 using long multiplication:

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

	3	4
x	2	3

Step 2: Multiply
4 x 3 = 12. Put 2 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	3	4
x	2	3
		2

Step 3: Multiply
3 x 3 = 9. Take 9 and add 1 from the previous step to get 10. Enter 10 at the bottom:

		3	4
x		2	3
	1	0	2

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

		3	4
x		2	3
	1	0	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 4 = 8. Put 8 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (102 + 680 = 782) to get the answer:

		3	4
x		2	3
	1	0	2
+	6	8	0
=	7	8	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 34 times 23 equals:

782
