Solution - Long multiplication
765
Step-by-step explanation
1. Rewrite the numbers from top to bottom aligned to the right
| Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 8 | 5 | ||
| × | 9 | ||
2. Multiply the numbers using long multiplication method
Start by multiplying the ones digit (9) of the multiplier 9 by each digit of the multiplicand 85, from right to left.
Multiply the ones digit (9) of the multiplicator by the number in the ones place value:
9×5=45
Write 5 in the ones place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 4 to the tens place.
| Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 4 | |||
| 8 | 5 | ||
| × | 9 | ||
| 5 |
Multiply the ones digit (9) of the multiplicator by the number in the tens place value and add the carried number (4):
9×8+4=76
Write 6 in the tens place.
Because the result is greater than 9, carry the 7 to the hundreds place.
| Place value | hundreds | tens | ones |
| 7 | 4 | ||
| 8 | 5 | ||
| × | 9 | ||
| 7 | 6 | 5 |
The solution is: 765
