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

	4	7
x	1	1

Step 2: Multiply
7 x 1 = 7. Put 7 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	4	7
x	1	1
		7

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

	4	7
x	1	1
	4	7

Step 4: Add 0
