How to calculate 60 multiplied by 45

How to calculate 60 multiplied by 45 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 60 times 45 using long multiplication:

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

	6	0
x	4	5

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

	0
	6	0
x	4	5
		0

Step 3: Multiply
5 x 6 = 30. Take 30 and add 0 from the previous step to get 30. Enter 30 at the bottom:

		6	0
x		4	5
	3	0	0

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

		6	0
x		4	5
	3	0	0
+			0

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

		0
		6	0
x		4	5
	3	0	0
+		0	0

Step 6: Multiply
4 x 6 = 24. Take 24 and add 0 from the previous step to get 24. Enter 24 at the bottom:

			6	0
x			4	5
		3	0	0
+	2	4	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (300 + 2400 = 2700) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 60 times 45 equals:

2700
