How to calculate 66 multiplied by 51

How to calculate 66 multiplied by 51 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 66 times 51 using long multiplication:

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

	6	6
x	5	1

Step 2: Multiply
6 x 1 = 6. Put 6 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	6	6
x	5	1
		6

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	6
x	5	1
	6	6

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	5	1
	6	6
+		0

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

	3
	6	6
x	5	1
	6	6
+	0	0

Step 6: Multiply
5 x 6 = 30. Take 30 and add 3 from the previous step to get 33. Enter 33 at the bottom:

			6	6
x			5	1
			6	6
+	3	3	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (66 + 3300 = 3366) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 66 times 51 equals:

3366
