How to calculate 84 multiplied by 18

How to calculate 84 multiplied by 18 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 84 times 18 using long multiplication:

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

	8	4
x	1	8

Step 2: Multiply
4 x 8 = 32. Put 2 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

	3
	8	4
x	1	8
		2

Step 3: Multiply
8 x 8 = 64. Take 64 and add 3 from the previous step to get 67. Enter 67 at the bottom:

		8	4
x		1	8
	6	7	2

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

		8	4
x		1	8
	6	7	2
+			0

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

		0
		8	4
x		1	8
	6	7	2
+		4	0

Step 6: Multiply
1 x 8 = 8. Take 8 and add 0 from the previous step to get 8. Enter 8 at the bottom:

		8	4
x		1	8
	6	7	2
+	8	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (672 + 840 = 1512) to get the answer:

			8	4
x			1	8
		6	7	2
+		8	4	0
=	1	5	1	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 84 times 18 equals:

1512
