How to calculate 65 multiplied by 56

How to calculate 65 multiplied by 56 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 65 times 56 using long multiplication:

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

	6	5
x	5	6

Step 2: Multiply
5 x 6 = 30. Put 0 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

	3
	6	5
x	5	6
		0

Step 3: Multiply
6 x 6 = 36. Take 36 and add 3 from the previous step to get 39. Enter 39 at the bottom:

		6	5
x		5	6
	3	9	0

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

		6	5
x		5	6
	3	9	0
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
5 x 5 = 25. Put 5 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

		2
		6	5
x		5	6
	3	9	0
+		5	0

Step 6: Multiply
5 x 6 = 30. Take 30 and add 2 from the previous step to get 32. Enter 32 at the bottom:

			6	5
x			5	6
		3	9	0
+	3	2	5	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (390 + 3250 = 3640) to get the answer:

			6	5
x			5	6
		3	9	0
+	3	2	5	0
=	3	6	4	0

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 65 times 56 equals:
