How to calculate 96 multiplied by 48

How to calculate 96 multiplied by 48 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 96 times 48 using long multiplication:

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

	9	6
x	4	8

Step 2: Multiply
6 x 8 = 48. Put 8 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	9	6
x	4	8
		8

Step 3: Multiply
8 x 9 = 72. Take 72 and add 4 from the previous step to get 76. Enter 76 at the bottom:

		9	6
x		4	8
	7	6	8

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	8
	7	6	8
+			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	8
	7	6	8
+		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	8
		7	6	8
+	3	8	4	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (768 + 3840 = 4608) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 96 times 48 equals:

4608
