How to calculate 77 multiplied by 12

How to calculate 77 multiplied by 12 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 77 times 12 using long multiplication:

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

	7	7
x	1	2

Step 2: Multiply
7 x 2 = 14. Put 4 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	7	7
x	1	2
		4

Step 3: Multiply
2 x 7 = 14. Take 14 and add 1 from the previous step to get 15. Enter 15 at the bottom:

		7	7
x		1	2
	1	5	4

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

		7	7
x		1	2
	1	5	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
1 x 7 = 7. Put 7 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

		0
		7	7
x		1	2
	1	5	4
+		7	0

Step 6: Multiply
1 x 7 = 7. Take 7 and add 0 from the previous step to get 7. Enter 7 at the bottom:

		7	7
x		1	2
	1	5	4
+	7	7	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (154 + 770 = 924) to get the answer:

		7	7
x		1	2
	1	5	4
+	7	7	0
=	9	2	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 77 times 12 equals:

924
