How to calculate 75 multiplied by 38

How to calculate 75 multiplied by 38 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 75 times 38 using long multiplication:

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

	7	5
x	3	8

Step 2: Multiply
5 x 8 = 40. Put 0 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	7	5
x	3	8
		0

Step 3: Multiply
8 x 7 = 56. Take 56 and add 4 from the previous step to get 60. Enter 60 at the bottom:

		7	5
x		3	8
	6	0	0

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

		7	5
x		3	8
	6	0	0
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
3 x 5 = 15. Put 5 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

		1
		7	5
x		3	8
	6	0	0
+		5	0

Step 6: Multiply
3 x 7 = 21. Take 21 and add 1 from the previous step to get 22. Enter 22 at the bottom:

			7	5
x			3	8
		6	0	0
+	2	2	5	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (600 + 2250 = 2850) to get the answer:

			7	5
x			3	8
		6	0	0
+	2	2	5	0
=	2	8	5	0

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 75 times 38 equals:

2850
