How to calculate 49 multiplied by 31

How to calculate 49 multiplied by 31 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 49 times 31 using long multiplication:

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

	4	9
x	3	1

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 1 = 9. Put 9 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	4	9
x	3	1
		9

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	9
x	3	1
	4	9

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	3	1
	4	9
+		0

Step 5: Multiply
3 x 9 = 27. Put 7 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

	2
	4	9
x	3	1
	4	9
+	7	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	9
x			3	1
			4	9
+	1	4	7	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (49 + 1470 = 1519) to get the answer:

			4	9
x			3	1
			4	9
+	1	4	7	0
=	1	5	1	9

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 49 times 31 equals:

1519
