How to calculate 58 multiplied by 23

How to calculate 58 multiplied by 23 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 58 times 23 using long multiplication:

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

	5	8
x	2	3

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 3 = 24. Put 4 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

	2
	5	8
x	2	3
		4

Step 3: Multiply
3 x 5 = 15. Take 15 and add 2 from the previous step to get 17. Enter 17 at the bottom:

		5	8
x		2	3
	1	7	4

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

		5	8
x		2	3
	1	7	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 8 = 16. Put 6 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

		1
		5	8
x		2	3
	1	7	4
+		6	0

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 5 = 10. Take 10 and add 1 from the previous step to get 11. Enter 11 at the bottom:

			5	8
x			2	3
		1	7	4
+	1	1	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (174 + 1160 = 1334) to get the answer:

			5	8
x			2	3
		1	7	4
+	1	1	6	0
=	1	3	3	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 58 times 23 equals:

1334
