Answer:

2418

Explanation:

Step 1: Setup

Set up your multiplication problem like this:

9 3

x 2 6

Step 2: Multiply

3 x 6 = 18. Put 8 below the line and 1 as a reminder on top:

1

9 3

x 2 6

8

Step 3: Multiply

6 x 9 = 54. Take 54 and add 1 from the previous step to get 55. Enter 55 at the bottom:

9 3

x 2 6

5 5 8

Step 4: Add 0

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

9 3

x 2 6

5 5 8

+ 0

Step 5: Multiply

2 x 3 = 6. Put 6 below the line and 0 as a reminder on top:

0

9 3

x 2 6

5 5 8

+ 6 0

Step 6: Multiply

2 x 9 = 18. Take 18 and add 0 from the previous step to get 18. Enter 18 at the bottom:

9 3

x 2 6

5 5 8

+ 1 8 6 0

Step 7: Add to get an answer

Add up the bottom two numbers (558 + 1860 = 2418) to get the answer:

9 3

x 2 6

5 5 8

+ 1 8 6 0

= 2 4 1 8

The bottom line is the answer. Therefore, 93 times 26 equals:

2418
