How to calculate 95 multiplied by 87

How to calculate 95 multiplied by 87 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 95 times 87 using long multiplication:

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

	9	5
x	8	7

Step 2: Multiply
5 x 7 = 35. Put 5 below the line and 3 as a reminder on top:

	3
	9	5
x	8	7
		5

Step 3: Multiply
7 x 9 = 63. Take 63 and add 3 from the previous step to get 66. Enter 66 at the bottom:

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

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (665 + 7600 = 8265) to get the answer:

			9	5
x			8	7
		6	6	5
+	7	6	0	0
=	8	2	6	5

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 95 times 87 equals:

8265
