How to calculate 63 multiplied by 51

How to calculate 63 multiplied by 51 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 63 times 51 using long multiplication:

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

	6	3
x	5	1

Step 2: Multiply
3 x 1 = 3. Put 3 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	6	3
x	5	1
		3

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

	6	3
x	5	1
	6	3

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	5	1
	6	3
+		0

Step 5: Multiply
5 x 3 = 15. Put 5 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	6	3
x	5	1
	6	3
+	5	0

Step 6: Multiply
5 x 6 = 30. Take 30 and add 1 from the previous step to get 31. Enter 31 at the bottom:

			6	3
x			5	1
			6	3
+	3	1	5	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (63 + 3150 = 3213) to get the answer:

			6	3
x			5	1
			6	3
+	3	1	5	0
=	3	2	1	3

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 63 times 51 equals:

3213
