How to calculate 78 multiplied by 14

How to calculate 78 multiplied by 14 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 78 times 14 using long multiplication:

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

	7	8
x	1	4

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 4 = 32. Put 2 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

	3
	7	8
x	1	4
		2

Step 3: Multiply
4 x 7 = 28. Take 28 and add 3 from the previous step to get 31. Enter 31 at the bottom:

		7	8
x		1	4
	3	1	2

Step 4: Add 0
Enter a 0 at the bottom right as a place holder, because you now move over one digit:

		7	8
x		1	4
	3	1	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
1 x 8 = 8. Put 8 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (312 + 780 = 1092) to get the answer:

			7	8
x			1	4
		3	1	2
+		7	8	0
=	1	0	9	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 78 times 14 equals:

1092
