How to calculate 49 multiplied by 47

How to calculate 49 multiplied by 47 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 49 times 47 using long multiplication:

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

	4	9
x	4	7

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 7 = 63. Put 3 below the line and 6 as a reminder on top:

	6
	4	9
x	4	7
		3

Step 3: Multiply
7 x 4 = 28. Take 28 and add 6 from the previous step to get 34. Enter 34 at the bottom:

		4	9
x		4	7
	3	4	3

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		4	7
	3	4	3
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
4 x 9 = 36. Put 6 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

		3
		4	9
x		4	7
	3	4	3
+		6	0

Step 6: Multiply
4 x 4 = 16. Take 16 and add 3 from the previous step to get 19. Enter 19 at the bottom:

			4	9
x			4	7
		3	4	3
+	1	9	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (343 + 1960 = 2303) to get the answer:

			4	9
x			4	7
		3	4	3
+	1	9	6	0
=	2	3	0	3

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 49 times 47 equals:

2303
