Long Multiplication: 30 × 30
What is 30 × 30?
Answer
30 × 30 is a square: a number multiplied by itself, so 900 is the square of 30. Below, 30 is multiplied by 30 in a column, digit by digit.
30 × 30 in a Column
The multiplicand goes on top, the multiplier underneath, both aligned on the right. Only one digit of the multiplier is not zero, and it stands for 30, so there is a single partial product and the answer goes straight under the line.
| 3 | 0 | ||
| × | 3 | 0 | |
| 9 | 0 | 0 |
Step-by-Step Solution
Step 1: The last digit of the multiplier is 0, so this partial product is 0 and adds nothing to the total.
Step 2: The next digit of the multiplier is 3, and it stands for 30: 30 × 30 = 900.
- 0 × 3 = 0. Write 0.
- 3 × 3 = 9. Write 9.
30 × 30
=900
Check It, and What It Is Not
Check by dividing back. Multiplication and division undo each other, so 900 ÷ 30 = 30 must come out exactly, with no remainder.
Fractions are a different calculation. Both factors here are whole numbers; for 2/3 or 2 3/4 use the fraction multiplication calculator, which multiplies numerators and denominators separately.
30 × 30 is a number, not an area. If those are the sides of a room in feet, the answer is 900 square feet — the same arithmetic, a different question, and it is answered by the square footage calculator.
