How to calculate 95 multiplied by 85

How to calculate 95 multiplied by 85 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 95 times 85 using long multiplication:

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

	9	5
x	8	5

Step 2: Multiply
5 x 5 = 25. Put 5 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

	2
	9	5
x	8	5
		5

Step 3: Multiply
5 x 9 = 45. Take 45 and add 2 from the previous step to get 47. Enter 47 at the bottom:

		9	5
x		8	5
	4	7	5

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

		9	5
x		8	5
	4	7	5
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
8 x 5 = 40. Put 0 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

		4
		9	5
x		8	5
	4	7	5
+		0	0

Step 6: Multiply
8 x 9 = 72. Take 72 and add 4 from the previous step to get 76. Enter 76 at the bottom:

			9	5
x			8	5
		4	7	5
+	7	6	0	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (475 + 7600 = 8075) to get the answer:

			9	5
x			8	5
		4	7	5
+	7	6	0	0
=	8	0	7	5

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 95 times 85 equals:

8075
