How to calculate 76 multiplied by 27

How to calculate 76 multiplied by 27 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 76 times 27 using long multiplication:

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

	7	6
x	2	7

Step 2: Multiply
6 x 7 = 42. Put 2 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	7	6
x	2	7
		2

Step 3: Multiply
7 x 7 = 49. Take 49 and add 4 from the previous step to get 53. Enter 53 at the bottom:

		7	6
x		2	7
	5	3	2

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

		7	6
x		2	7
	5	3	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 6 = 12. Put 2 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

		1
		7	6
x		2	7
	5	3	2
+		2	0

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 7 = 14. Take 14 and add 1 from the previous step to get 15. Enter 15 at the bottom:

			7	6
x			2	7
		5	3	2
+	1	5	2	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (532 + 1520 = 2052) to get the answer:

			7	6
x			2	7
		5	3	2
+	1	5	2	0
=	2	0	5	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 76 times 27 equals:

2052
