How to calculate 86 multiplied by 60

How to calculate 86 multiplied by 60 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 86 times 60 using long multiplication:

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

	8	6
x	6	0

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

	0
	8	6
x	6	0
		0

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

	8	6
x	6	0
	0	0

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	6	0
	0	0
+		0

Step 5: Multiply
6 x 6 = 36. Put 6 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

Step 6: Multiply
6 x 8 = 48. Take 48 and add 3 from the previous step to get 51. Enter 51 at the bottom:

			8	6
x			6	0
			0	0
+	5	1	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (0 + 5160 = 5160) to get the answer:

			8	6
x			6	0
			0	0
+	5	1	6	0
=	5	1	6	0

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 86 times 60 equals:

5160
