How to calculate 77 multiplied by 52

How to calculate 77 multiplied by 52 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 77 times 52 using long multiplication:

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

	7	7
x	5	2

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

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

Step 5: Multiply
5 x 7 = 35. Put 5 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

		3
		7	7
x		5	2
	1	5	4
+		5	0

Step 6: Multiply
5 x 7 = 35. Take 35 and add 3 from the previous step to get 38. Enter 38 at the bottom:

			7	7
x			5	2
		1	5	4
+	3	8	5	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (154 + 3850 = 4004) to get the answer:

			7	7
x			5	2
		1	5	4
+	3	8	5	0
=	4	0	0	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 77 times 52 equals:

4004
