How to calculate 73 multiplied by 64

How to calculate 73 multiplied by 64 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 73 times 64 using long multiplication:

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

	7	3
x	6	4

Step 2: Multiply
3 x 4 = 12. Put 2 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	7	3
x	6	4
		2

Step 3: Multiply
4 x 7 = 28. Take 28 and add 1 from the previous step to get 29. Enter 29 at the bottom:

		7	3
x		6	4
	2	9	2

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

		7	3
x		6	4
	2	9	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
6 x 3 = 18. Put 8 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

		1
		7	3
x		6	4
	2	9	2
+		8	0

Step 6: Multiply
6 x 7 = 42. Take 42 and add 1 from the previous step to get 43. Enter 43 at the bottom:

			7	3
x			6	4
		2	9	2
+	4	3	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (292 + 4380 = 4672) to get the answer:

			7	3
x			6	4
		2	9	2
+	4	3	8	0
=	4	6	7	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 73 times 64 equals:

4672
