How to calculate 65 multiplied by 61

How to calculate 65 multiplied by 61 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 65 times 61 using long multiplication:

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

	6	5
x	6	1

Step 2: Multiply
5 x 1 = 5. Put 5 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	6	5
x	6	1
		5

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	5
x	6	1
	6	5

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	6	1
	6	5
+		0

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

Step 6: 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			6	1
			6	5
+	3	9	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (65 + 3900 = 3965) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 65 times 61 equals:

3965
