How to calculate 86 multiplied by 63

How to calculate 86 multiplied by 63 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 86 times 63 using long multiplication:

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

	8	6
x	6	3

Step 2: Multiply
6 x 3 = 18. Put 8 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	8	6
x	6	3
		8

Step 3: 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		6	3
	2	5	8

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	3
	2	5	8
+			0

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

		3
		8	6
x		6	3
	2	5	8
+		6	0

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	3
		2	5	8
+	5	1	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (258 + 5160 = 5418) to get the answer:

			8	6
x			6	3
		2	5	8
+	5	1	6	0
=	5	4	1	8

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 86 times 63 equals:

5418
