How to calculate 64 multiplied by 63

How to calculate 64 multiplied by 63 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 64 times 63 using long multiplication:

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

	6	4
x	6	3

Step 2: Multiply
4 x 3 = 12. Put 2 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	6	4
x	6	3
		2

Step 3: Multiply
3 x 6 = 18. Take 18 and add 1 from the previous step to get 19. Enter 19 at the bottom:

		6	4
x		6	3
	1	9	2

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

		6	4
x		6	3
	1	9	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
6 x 4 = 24. Put 4 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

		2
		6	4
x		6	3
	1	9	2
+		4	0

Step 6: Multiply
6 x 6 = 36. Take 36 and add 2 from the previous step to get 38. Enter 38 at the bottom:

			6	4
x			6	3
		1	9	2
+	3	8	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (192 + 3840 = 4032) to get the answer:

			6	4
x			6	3
		1	9	2
+	3	8	4	0
=	4	0	3	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 64 times 63 equals:
