How to calculate 66 multiplied by 12

How to calculate 66 multiplied by 12 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 66 times 12 using long multiplication:

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

	6	6
x	1	2

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

	1
	6	6
x	1	2
		2

Step 3: Multiply
2 x 6 = 12. Take 12 and add 1 from the previous step to get 13. Enter 13 at the bottom:

		6	6
x		1	2
	1	3	2

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

		6	6
x		1	2
	1	3	2
+			0

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

		0
		6	6
x		1	2
	1	3	2
+		6	0

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

		6	6
x		1	2
	1	3	2
+	6	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (132 + 660 = 792) to get the answer:

		6	6
x		1	2
	1	3	2
+	6	6	0
=	7	9	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 66 times 12 equals:

792
