How to calculate 83 multiplied by 43

How to calculate 83 multiplied by 43 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 83 times 43 using long multiplication:

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

	8	3
x	4	3

Step 2: Multiply
3 x 3 = 9. Put 9 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	8	3
x	4	3
		9

Step 3: Multiply
3 x 8 = 24. Take 24 and add 0 from the previous step to get 24. Enter 24 at the bottom:

		8	3
x		4	3
	2	4	9

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

		8	3
x		4	3
	2	4	9
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
4 x 3 = 12. Put 2 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 6: Multiply
4 x 8 = 32. Take 32 and add 1 from the previous step to get 33. Enter 33 at the bottom:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (249 + 3320 = 3569) to get the answer:

			8	3
x			4	3
		2	4	9
+	3	3	2	0
=	3	5	6	9

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 83 times 43 equals:

3569
