How to calculate 39 multiplied by 29

How to calculate 39 multiplied by 29 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 39 times 29 using long multiplication:

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

	3	9
x	2	9

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 9 = 81. Put 1 below the line and 8 as a reminder on top:

	8
	3	9
x	2	9
		1

Step 3: Multiply
9 x 3 = 27. Take 27 and add 8 from the previous step to get 35. Enter 35 at the bottom:

		3	9
x		2	9
	3	5	1

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

		3	9
x		2	9
	3	5	1
+			0

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

		1
		3	9
x		2	9
	3	5	1
+		8	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	9
x		2	9
	3	5	1
+	7	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (351 + 780 = 1131) to get the answer:

			3	9
x			2	9
		3	5	1
+		7	8	0
=	1	1	3	1

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 39 times 29 equals:

1131
