How to calculate 48 multiplied by 33

How to calculate 48 multiplied by 33 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 48 times 33 using long multiplication:

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

	4	8
x	3	3

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 3 = 24. Put 4 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

	2
	4	8
x	3	3
		4

Step 3: Multiply
3 x 4 = 12. Take 12 and add 2 from the previous step to get 14. Enter 14 at the bottom:

		4	8
x		3	3
	1	4	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		3	3
	1	4	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
3 x 8 = 24. Put 4 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 6: Multiply
3 x 4 = 12. Take 12 and add 2 from the previous step to get 14. Enter 14 at the bottom:

			4	8
x			3	3
		1	4	4
+	1	4	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (144 + 1440 = 1584) to get the answer:

			4	8
x			3	3
		1	4	4
+	1	4	4	0
=	1	5	8	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 48 times 33 equals:

1584
