How to calculate 63 multiplied by 26

How to calculate 63 multiplied by 26 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 63 times 26 using long multiplication:

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

	6	3
x	2	6

Step 2: Multiply
3 x 6 = 18. Put 8 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	6	3
x	2	6
		8

Step 3: Multiply
6 x 6 = 36. Take 36 and add 1 from the previous step to get 37. Enter 37 at the bottom:

		6	3
x		2	6
	3	7	8

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

		6	3
x		2	6
	3	7	8
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 3 = 6. Put 6 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

		0
		6	3
x		2	6
	3	7	8
+		6	0

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 6 = 12. Take 12 and add 0 from the previous step to get 12. Enter 12 at the bottom:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (378 + 1260 = 1638) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 63 times 26 equals:

1638
