How to calculate 49 multiplied by 48

How to calculate 49 multiplied by 48 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 49 times 48 using long multiplication:

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

	4	9
x	4	8

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 8 = 72. Put 2 below the line and 7 as a reminder on top:

	7
	4	9
x	4	8
		2

Step 3: Multiply
8 x 4 = 32. Take 32 and add 7 from the previous step to get 39. Enter 39 at the bottom:

		4	9
x		4	8
	3	9	2

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	8
	3	9	2
+			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	8
	3	9	2
+		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	8
		3	9	2
+	1	9	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (392 + 1960 = 2352) to get the answer:

			4	9
x			4	8
		3	9	2
+	1	9	6	0
=	2	3	5	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 49 times 48 equals:

2352
