How to calculate 69 multiplied by 46

How to calculate 69 multiplied by 46 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 69 times 46 using long multiplication:

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

	6	9
x	4	6

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 6 = 54. Put 4 below the line and 5 as a reminder on top:

	5
	6	9
x	4	6
		4

Step 3: Multiply
6 x 6 = 36. Take 36 and add 5 from the previous step to get 41. Enter 41 at the bottom:

		6	9
x		4	6
	4	1	4

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

		6	9
x		4	6
	4	1	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
4 x 9 = 36. Put 6 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

		3
		6	9
x		4	6
	4	1	4
+		6	0

Step 6: Multiply
4 x 6 = 24. Take 24 and add 3 from the previous step to get 27. Enter 27 at the bottom:

			6	9
x			4	6
		4	1	4
+	2	7	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (414 + 2760 = 3174) to get the answer:

			6	9
x			4	6
		4	1	4
+	2	7	6	0
=	3	1	7	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 69 times 46 equals:

3174
