How to calculate 37 multiplied by 26

How to calculate 37 multiplied by 26 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 37 times 26 using long multiplication:

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

	3	7
x	2	6

Step 2: Multiply
7 x 6 = 42. Put 2 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	3	7
x	2	6
		2

Step 3: Multiply
6 x 3 = 18. Take 18 and add 4 from the previous step to get 22. Enter 22 at the bottom:

		3	7
x		2	6
	2	2	2

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

		3	7
x		2	6
	2	2	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 7 = 14. Put 4 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 3 = 6. Take 6 and add 1 from the previous step to get 7. Enter 7 at the bottom:

		3	7
x		2	6
	2	2	2
+	7	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (222 + 740 = 962) to get the answer:

		3	7
x		2	6
	2	2	2
+	7	4	0
=	9	6	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 37 times 26 equals:

962
