How to calculate 63 multiplied by 53

How to calculate 63 multiplied by 53 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 63 times 53 using long multiplication:

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

	6	3
x	5	3

Step 2: Multiply
3 x 3 = 9. Put 9 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	6	3
x	5	3
		9

Step 3: Multiply
3 x 6 = 18. Take 18 and add 0 from the previous step to get 18. Enter 18 at the bottom:

		6	3
x		5	3
	1	8	9

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	3
	1	8	9
+			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	3
	1	8	9
+		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	3
		1	8	9
+	3	1	5	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (189 + 3150 = 3339) to get the answer:

			6	3
x			5	3
		1	8	9
+	3	1	5	0
=	3	3	3	9

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 63 times 53 equals:

3339
