How to calculate 77 multiplied by 17

How to calculate 77 multiplied by 17 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 77 times 17 using long multiplication:

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

	7	7
x	1	7

Step 2: Multiply
7 x 7 = 49. Put 9 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	7	7
x	1	7
		9

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	7
x		1	7
	5	3	9

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	7
	5	3	9
+			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	7
	5	3	9
+		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	7
	5	3	9
+	7	7	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (539 + 770 = 1309) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 77 times 17 equals:

1309
