How to calculate 48 multiplied by 28

How to calculate 48 multiplied by 28 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 48 times 28 using long multiplication:

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

	4	8
x	2	8

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 8 = 64. Put 4 below the line and 6 as a reminder on top:

	6
	4	8
x	2	8
		4

Step 3: Multiply
8 x 4 = 32. Take 32 and add 6 from the previous step to get 38. Enter 38 at the bottom:

		4	8
x		2	8
	3	8	4

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

		4	8
x		2	8
	3	8	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 8 = 16. Put 6 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

		1
		4	8
x		2	8
	3	8	4
+		6	0

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 4 = 8. Take 8 and add 1 from the previous step to get 9. Enter 9 at the bottom:

		4	8
x		2	8
	3	8	4
+	9	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (384 + 960 = 1344) to get the answer:

			4	8
x			2	8
		3	8	4
+		9	6	0
=	1	3	4	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 48 times 28 equals:

1344
