How to calculate 50 multiplied by 34

How to calculate 50 multiplied by 34 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 50 times 34 using long multiplication:

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

	5	0
x	3	4

Step 2: Multiply
0 x 4 = 0. Put 0 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	5	0
x	3	4
		0

Step 3: Multiply
4 x 5 = 20. Take 20 and add 0 from the previous step to get 20. Enter 20 at the bottom:

		5	0
x		3	4
	2	0	0

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

		5	0
x		3	4
	2	0	0
+			0

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

		0
		5	0
x		3	4
	2	0	0
+		0	0

Step 6: Multiply
3 x 5 = 15. Take 15 and add 0 from the previous step to get 15. Enter 15 at the bottom:

			5	0
x			3	4
		2	0	0
+	1	5	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (200 + 1500 = 1700) to get the answer:

			5	0
x			3	4
		2	0	0
+	1	5	0	0
=	1	7	0	0

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 50 times 34 equals:

1700
