How to calculate 77 multiplied by 48

How to calculate 77 multiplied by 48 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 77 times 48 using long multiplication:

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

	7	7
x	4	8

Step 2: Multiply
7 x 8 = 56. Put 6 below the line and 5 as a reminder on top:

	5
	7	7
x	4	8
		6

Step 3: Multiply
8 x 7 = 56. Take 56 and add 5 from the previous step to get 61. Enter 61 at the bottom:

		7	7
x		4	8
	6	1	6

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	8
	6	1	6
+			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	8
	6	1	6
+		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	8
		6	1	6
+	3	0	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (616 + 3080 = 3696) to get the answer:

			7	7
x			4	8
		6	1	6
+	3	0	8	0
=	3	6	9	6

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 77 times 48 equals:

3696
