2
2 6
x 2 4
__________
4
Step 3: Multiply
4 x 2 = 8. Take 8 and add 2 from the previous step to get 10. Enter 10 at the bottom:
2 6
x 2 4
___________
1 0 4
Step 4: Add 0
Enter a 0 at the bottom right as a place holder, because you now move over one digit:
2 6
x 2 4
___________
1 0 4
+ 0
Step 5: Multiply
2 x 6 = 12. Put 2 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:
1
2 6
x 2 4
_________
1 0 4
+ 2 0
Step 6: Multiply
2 x 2 = 4. Take 4 and add 1 from the previous step to get 5. Enter 5 at the bottom:
2 6
x 2 4
____________
1 0 4
+ 5 2 0
Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (104 + 520 = 624) to get the answer:
2 6
x 2 4
___________
1 0 4
+ 5 2 0
_____________
6 2 4
Step 7: Add to get answer
Add up the bottom two numbers (104 + 520 = 624) to get the answer
624
The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 26 times 24 equals 624.
