How to calculate 67 multiplied by 42

How to calculate 67 multiplied by 42 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 67 times 42 using long multiplication:

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

	6	7
x	4	2

Step 2: Multiply
7 x 2 = 14. Put 4 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	6	7
x	4	2
		4

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	7
x		4	2
	1	3	4

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

		6	7
x		4	2
	1	3	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
4 x 7 = 28. Put 8 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

		2
		6	7
x		4	2
	1	3	4
+		8	0

Step 6: Multiply
4 x 6 = 24. Take 24 and add 2 from the previous step to get 26. Enter 26 at the bottom:

			6	7
x			4	2
		1	3	4
+	2	6	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (134 + 2680 = 2814) to get the answer:

			6	7
x			4	2
		1	3	4
+	2	6	8	0
=	2	8	1	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 67 times 42 equals:

2814
