How to calculate 53 multiplied by 39

How to calculate 53 multiplied by 39 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 53 times 39 using long multiplication:

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

	5	3
x	3	9

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

	2
	5	3
x	3	9
		7

Step 3: Multiply
9 x 5 = 45. Take 45 and add 2 from the previous step to get 47. Enter 47 at the bottom:

		5	3
x		3	9
	4	7	7

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

		5	3
x		3	9
	4	7	7
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
3 x 3 = 9. Put 9 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (477 + 1590 = 2067) to get the answer:

			5	3
x			3	9
		4	7	7
+	1	5	9	0
=	2	0	6	7

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 53 times 39 equals:

2067
