How to calculate 40 multiplied by 28

How to calculate 40 multiplied by 28 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 40 times 28 using long multiplication:

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

	4	0
x	2	8

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

	0
	4	0
x	2	8
		0

Step 3: Multiply
8 x 4 = 32. Take 32 and add 0 from the previous step to get 32. Enter 32 at the bottom:

		4	0
x		2	8
	3	2	0

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

		4	0
x		2	8
	3	2	0
+			0

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

		0
		4	0
x		2	8
	3	2	0
+		0	0

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 4 = 8. Take 8 and add 0 from the previous step to get 8. Enter 8 at the bottom:

		4	0
x		2	8
	3	2	0
+	8	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (320 + 800 = 1120) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 40 times 28 equals:

1120
