How to calculate 42 multiplied by 35

How to calculate 42 multiplied by 35 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 42 times 35 using long multiplication:

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

	4	2
x	3	5

Step 2: Multiply
2 x 5 = 10. Put 0 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	4	2
x	3	5
		0

Step 3: Multiply
5 x 4 = 20. Take 20 and add 1 from the previous step to get 21. Enter 21 at the bottom:

		4	2
x		3	5
	2	1	0

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

		4	2
x		3	5
	2	1	0
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
3 x 2 = 6. Put 6 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

		0
		4	2
x		3	5
	2	1	0
+		6	0

Step 6: Multiply
3 x 4 = 12. Take 12 and add 0 from the previous step to get 12. Enter 12 at the bottom:

			4	2
x			3	5
		2	1	0
+	1	2	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (210 + 1260 = 1470) to get the answer:

			4	2
x			3	5
		2	1	0
+	1	2	6	0
=	1	4	7	0

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 42 times 35 equals:

1470
