How to calculate 58 multiplied by 54

How to calculate 58 multiplied by 54 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 58 times 54 using long multiplication:

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

	5	8
x	5	4

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 4 = 32. Put 2 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

	3
	5	8
x	5	4
		2

Step 3: Multiply
4 x 5 = 20. Take 20 and add 3 from the previous step to get 23. Enter 23 at the bottom:

		5	8
x		5	4
	2	3	2

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		5	4
	2	3	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
5 x 8 = 40. Put 0 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

		4
		5	8
x		5	4
	2	3	2
+		0	0

Step 6: Multiply
5 x 5 = 25. Take 25 and add 4 from the previous step to get 29. Enter 29 at the bottom:

			5	8
x			5	4
		2	3	2
+	2	9	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (232 + 2900 = 3132) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 58 times 54 equals:

3132
