How to calculate 76 multiplied by 71

How to calculate 76 multiplied by 71 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 76 times 71 using long multiplication:

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

	7	6
x	7	1

Step 2: Multiply
6 x 1 = 6. Put 6 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	7	6
x	7	1
		6

Step 3: Multiply
1 x 7 = 7. Take 7 and add 0 from the previous step to get 7. Enter 7 at the bottom:

	7	6
x	7	1
	7	6

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	7	1
	7	6
+		0

Step 5: Multiply
7 x 6 = 42. Put 2 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	7	6
x	7	1
	7	6
+	2	0

Step 6: 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			7	1
			7	6
+	5	3	2	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (76 + 5320 = 5396) to get the answer:

			7	6
x			7	1
			7	6
+	5	3	2	0
=	5	3	9	6

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 76 times 71 equals:

5396
