How to calculate 79 multiplied by 64

How to calculate 79 multiplied by 64 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 79 times 64 using long multiplication:

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

	7	9
x	6	4

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 4 = 36. Put 6 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

	3
	7	9
x	6	4
		6

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	9
x		6	4
	3	1	6

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		6	4
	3	1	6
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
6 x 9 = 54. Put 4 below the line and 5 as a reminder on top:

		5
		7	9

Step 6: Multiply
6 x 7 = 42. Take 42 and add 5 from the previous step to get 47. Enter 47 at the bottom:

			7	9
x			6	4
		3	1	6
+	4	7	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (316 + 4740 = 5056) to get the answer:

			7	9
x			6	4
		3	1	6
+	4	7	4	0
=	5	0	5	6

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 79 times 64 equals:
