How to calculate 77 multiplied by 54

How to calculate 77 multiplied by 54 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 77 times 54 using long multiplication:

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

	7	7
x	5	4

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

	2
	7	7
x	5	4
		8

Step 3: 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		5	4
	3	0	8

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	4
	3	0	8
+			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	4
	3	0	8
+		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	4
		3	0	8
+	3	8	5	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (308 + 3850 = 4158) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 77 times 54 equals:

4158
