How to calculate 74 multiplied by 69

How to calculate 74 multiplied by 69 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 74 times 69 using long multiplication:

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

	7	4
x	6	9

Step 2: Multiply
4 x 9 = 36. Put 6 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

	3
	7	4
x	6	9
		6

Step 3: Multiply
9 x 7 = 63. Take 63 and add 3 from the previous step to get 66. Enter 66 at the bottom:

		7	4
x		6	9
	6	6	6

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

		7	4
x		6	9
	6	6	6
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
6 x 4 = 24. Put 4 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 6: Multiply
6 x 7 = 42. Take 42 and add 2 from the previous step to get 44. Enter 44 at the bottom:

			7	4
x			6	9
		6	6	6
+	4	4	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (666 + 4440 = 5106) to get the answer:

			7	4
x			6	9
		6	6	6
+	4	4	4	0
=	5	1	0	6

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 74 times 69 equals:

5106
