How to calculate 98 multiplied by 25

How to calculate 98 multiplied by 25 using long multiplication. Here is step-by-step how to calculate 98 times 25 using long multiplication:

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

	9	8
x	2	5

Step 2: Multiply
8 x 5 = 40. Put 0 below the line and 4 as a reminder on top:

	4
	9	8
x	2	5
		0

Step 3: Multiply
5 x 9 = 45. Take 45 and add 4 from the previous step to get 49. Enter 49 at the bottom:

		9	8
x		2	5
	4	9	0

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

		9	8
x		2	5
	4	9	0
+			0

Step 5: Multiply
2 x 8 = 16. Put 6 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

		1
		9	8
x		2	5
	4	9	0
+		6	0

Step 6: Multiply
2 x 9 = 18. Take 18 and add 1 from the previous step to get 19. Enter 19 at the bottom:

			9	8
x			2	5
		4	9	0
+	1	9	6	0

Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (490 + 1960 = 2450) to get the answer:

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

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 98 times 25 equals:

2450
