How to calculate 77 multiplied by 43

How to calculate 77 multiplied by 43 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 77 times 43 using long multiplication:

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

	7	7
x	4	3

Step 2: Multiply
7 x 3 = 21. Put 1 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

	2
	7	7
x	4	3
		1

Step 3: Multiply
3 x 7 = 21. Take 21 and add 2 from the previous step to get 23. Enter 23 at the bottom:

		7	7
x		4	3
	2	3	1

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		4	3
	2	3	1
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
4 x 7 = 28. Put 8 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

		2
		7	7
x		4	3
	2	3	1
+		8	0

Step 6: Multiply
4 x 7 = 28. Take 28 and add 2 from the previous step to get 30. Enter 30 at the bottom:

			7	7
x			4	3
		2	3	1
+	3	0	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (231 + 3080 = 3311) to get the answer:

			7	7
x			4	3
		2	3	1
+	3	0	8	0
=	3	3	1	1

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 77 times 43 equals:

3311
