How to calculate 96 multiplied by 47

How to calculate 96 multiplied by 47 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 96 times 47 using long multiplication:

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

	9	6
x	4	7

Step 2: Multiply
6 x 7 = 42. Put 2 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	9	6
x	4	7
		2

Step 3: Multiply
7 x 9 = 63. Take 63 and add 4 from the previous step to get 67. Enter 67 at the bottom:

		9	6
x		4	7
	6	7	2

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

		9	6
x		4	7
	6	7	2
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
4 x 6 = 24. Put 4 below the line and 2 as a reminder on top:

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

Step 6: Multiply
4 x 9 = 36. Take 36 and add 2 from the previous step to get 38. Enter 38 at the bottom:

			9	6
x			4	7
		6	7	2
+	3	8	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (672 + 3840 = 4512) to get the answer:

			9	6
x			4	7
		6	7	2
+	3	8	4	0
=	4	5	1	2

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 96 times 47 equals:

4512
