How to calculate 58 multiplied by 58

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

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

	5	8
x	5	8

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 8 = 64. Put 4 below the line and 6 as a reminder on top:

	6
	5	8
x	5	8
		4

Step 3: Multiply
8 x 5 = 40. Take 40 and add 6 from the previous step to get 46. Enter 46 at the bottom:

		5	8
x		5	8
	4	6	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		5	8
	4	6	4
+			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	8
	4	6	4
+		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	8
		4	6	4
+	2	9	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (464 + 2900 = 3364) to get the answer:

			5	8
x			5	8
		4	6	4
+	2	9	0	0
=	3	3	6	4

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

3364
