How to calculate 79 multiplied by 37

How to calculate 79 multiplied by 37 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 79 times 37 using long multiplication:

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

	7	9
x	3	7

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 7 = 63. Put 3 below the line and 6 as a reminder on top:

	6
	7	9
x	3	7
		3

Step 3: Multiply
7 x 7 = 49. Take 49 and add 6 from the previous step to get 55. Enter 55 at the bottom:

		7	9
x		3	7
	5	5	3

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

		7	9
x		3	7
	5	5	3
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
3 x 9 = 27. Put 7 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (553 + 2370 = 2923) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 79 times 37 equals:

2923
