How to calculate 79 multiplied by 76

How to calculate 79 multiplied by 76 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 79 times 76 using long multiplication:

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

	7	9
x	7	6

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 6 = 54. Put 4 below the line and 5 as a reminder on top:

	5
	7	9
x	7	6
		4

Step 3: 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		7	6
	4	7	4

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		7	6
	4	7	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
7 x 9 = 63. Put 3 below the line and 6 as a reminder on top:

		6
		7	9
x		7	6
	4	7	4

Step 6: 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			7	6
		4	7	4
+	5	5	3	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (474 + 5530 = 6004) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 79 times 76 equals:

6004
