How to calculate 88 multiplied by 19

How to calculate 88 multiplied by 19 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 88 times 19 using long multiplication:

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

	8	8
x	1	9

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 9 = 72. Put 2 below the line and 7 as a reminder on top:

	7
	8	8
x	1	9
		2

Step 3: Multiply
9 x 8 = 72. Take 72 and add 7 from the previous step to get 79. Enter 79 at the bottom:

		8	8
x		1	9
	7	9	2

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

		8	8
x		1	9
	7	9	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
1 x 8 = 8. Put 8 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

		0
		8	8
x		1	9
	7	9	2
+		8	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	8
x		1	9
	7	9	2
+	8	8	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (792 + 880 = 1672) to get the answer:

			8	8
x			1	9
		7	9	2
+		8	8	0
=	1	6	7	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 88 times 19 equals:

1672
