How to calculate 92 multiplied by 79

How to calculate 92 multiplied by 79 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 92 times 79 using long multiplication:

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

	9	2
x	7	9

Step 2: Multiply
2 x 9 = 18. Put 8 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

	1
	9	2
x	7	9
		8

Step 3: Multiply
9 x 9 = 81. Take 81 and add 1 from the previous step to get 82. Enter 82 at the bottom:

		9	2
x		7	9
	8	2	8

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

		9	2
x		7	9
	8	2	8
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
7 x 2 = 14. Put 4 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

		1
		9	2
x		7	9
	8	2	8
+		4	0

Step 6: Multiply
7 x 9 = 63. Take 63 and add 1 from the previous step to get 64. Enter 64 at the bottom:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (828 + 6440 = 7268) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 92 times 79 equals:

7268
