How to calculate 89 multiplied by 71

How to calculate 89 multiplied by 71 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 89 times 71 using long multiplication:

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

	8	9
x	7	1

Step 2: Multiply
9 x 1 = 9. Put 9 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

	0
	8	9
x	7	1
		9

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

	8	9
x	7	1
	8	9

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

	8	9
x	7	1
	8	9
+		0

Step 5: Multiply
7 x 9 = 63. Put 3 below the line and 6 as a reminder on top:

	6

Step 6: Multiply
7 x 8 = 56. Take 56 and add 6 from the previous step to get 62. Enter 62 at the bottom:

			8	9
x			7	1
			8	9
+	6	2	3	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (89 + 6230 = 6319) to get the answer:

			8	9
x			7	1
			8	9
+	6	2	3	0
=	6	3	1	9

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 89 times 71 equals:

6319
