How to calculate 78 multiplied by 35

How to calculate 78 multiplied by 35 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 78 times 35 using long multiplication:

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

	7	8
x	3	5

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 5 = 40. Put 0 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	7	8
x	3	5
		0

Step 3: Multiply
5 x 7 = 35. Take 35 and add 4 from the previous step to get 39. Enter 39 at the bottom:

		7	8
x		3	5
	3	9	0

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		3	5
	3	9	0
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
3 x 8 = 24. Put 4 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

		2
		7	8
x		3	5
	3	9	0
+		4	0

Step 6: Multiply
3 x 7 = 21. Take 21 and add 2 from the previous step to get 23. Enter 23 at the bottom:

			7	8
x			3	5
		3	9	0
+	2	3	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (390 + 2340 = 2730) to get the answer:

			7	8
x			3	5
		3	9	0
+	2	3	4	0
=	2	7	3	0

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 78 times 35 equals:

2730
