How to calculate 49 multiplied by 12

How to calculate 49 multiplied by 12 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 49 times 12 using long multiplication:

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

	4	9
x	1	2

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 2 = 18. Put 8 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	4	9
x	1	2
		8

Step 3: Multiply
2 x 4 = 8. Take 8 and add 1 from the previous step to get 9. Enter 9 at the bottom:

	4	9
x	1	2
	9	8

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

	4	9
x	1	2
	9	8
+		0

Step 5: Multiply
1 x 9 = 9. Put 9 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	4	9
x	1	2
	9	8
+	9	0

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

		4	9
x		1	2
		9	8
+	4	9	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (98 + 490 = 588) to get the answer:

		4	9
x		1	2
		9	8
+	4	9	0
=	5	8	8

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 49 times 12 equals:

588
