How to calculate 86 multiplied by 39

How to calculate 86 multiplied by 39 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 86 times 39 using long multiplication:

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

	8	6
x	3	9

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

	5
	8	6
x	3	9
		4

Step 3: Multiply
9 x 8 = 72. Take 72 and add 5 from the previous step to get 77. Enter 77 at the bottom:

		8	6
x		3	9
	7	7	4

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

		8	6
x		3	9
	7	7	4
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
3 x 6 = 18. Put 8 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

		1
		8	6
x		3	9
	7	7	4
+		8	0

Step 6: Multiply
3 x 8 = 24. Take 24 and add 1 from the previous step to get 25. Enter 25 at the bottom:

			8	6
x			3	9
		7	7	4
+	2	5	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (774 + 2580 = 3354) to get the answer:

			8	6
x			3	9
		7	7	4
+	2	5	8	0
=	3	3	5	4

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 86 times 39 equals:

3354
