How to calculate 52 multiplied by 24

How to calculate 52 multiplied by 24 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 52 times 24 using long multiplication:

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

	5	2
x	2	4

Step 2: Multiply
2 x 4 = 8. Put 8 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	5	2
x	2	4
		8

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	2
x		2	4
	2	0	8

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

		5	2
x		2	4
	2	0	8
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 2 = 4. Put 4 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

		0
		5	2
x		2	4
	2	0	8
+		4	0

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 5 = 10. Take 10 and add 0 from the previous step to get 10. Enter 10 at the bottom:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (208 + 1040 = 1248) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 52 times 24 equals:

1248
