  • A quick tutorial on multiplying any two-digit number by another two-digit number. I think this is faster and better, especially for bigger numbers. I will provide 3 examples and explaination of the method. Let me know what do you think about this method.

    Similarly, we can multiply any 3-digit number by any 3-digit number: for abc × def, we consider (ax² + bx + c)(dx² + ex + f) = adx⁴ + (ae + bd)x³ + (af + be + cd)x² + (bf + ce)x + cf, where x = 10. Then, we have abc × def = {ad}{ae + bd}{af + be + cd}{bf + ce}{cf}, where {・} represents a digit.

    this is one of my favourite methods for 2 or 3 digit products, i use it a lot for beginner math competitions.
    This is how I personally format this method, along with how to involve 3 digits (or more, if you extend the pattern), the slashes are just partitions to keep it clear:
    3 digit times 2 digit
    abc
    x de
    --------------------------------
    ad/ae+bd/be+cd/ce

    This isn't revolutionary. This is the completely standard multiplication algorithm we all learned in school, except you just typeset it a little differently. Maybe saving a little space, but apart from that there is literally not a single reason to use it over the standard algorithm.
    But the standard way to write down this multiplication algorithm generalizes almost trivially to larger numbers, while this method becomes unwieldy almost immediately, so that's a very good reason to just keep using that.

    What is very nice about the last one is that 74 is extremely close to 75, and 4 divides 68. So we multiply by 3/4 and by 100. From there we subtract 68 once

    Just Calculate: (10 x 22) + (3 x 22).
    I attented in mental multiplication competitions like Memoriad, but I think it‘s still the easiest way for untrained persons to multiply smaller digit numbers.
    If there is an even difference between the factors, for example: 25 x 35
    Difference: 35 -25 = 10
    Then you can calculate (30 x 30 ) - 5^2. So: 900 - 25 = 875.
    I know all squares from 1-99 from memory, so I can use it more often.
    If a number is near a full tenth, for example 48 in: 48 x 36
    Then calculate (50 x 36) - (2 x 36) = 1728.

    @HenrikMyrhaug Місяць тому +1

    Definitely not easier no.
    The stack method where you multiply each digit of one number with the other number, put the result in a row, and add the rows, is the same ammount of work. The difference is everything is more explicitly written out, and each result is given a dedicated place to be written, making the addition part easier. Because you have less structure to where things are written down when using your method, it is technically faster, but at the cost of being much less tidy and more prone to errors. Additionally, the stack method is great for dealing with large numbers, since a larger number only leads to additional rows being added to the stack. With your foil method, it is not as obvious how to do the multiplication for larger numbers.
    I would say your method is good for experienced mathematicians, whenever you don't have a calculator and need to quickly solve a multiplication, but the stack method is much more versatile and likely easier to teach.

    For 74×68, all you have to do is use the difference of squares. 71x71 is 5041, and each number is plus or minus 3 away from 71, so you subtract 3x3, or 9. Answer: 5032. It took me about one second to calculate.

    This is just bad. For more than one reason. First, let's take each example:
    1) 13×22
    Multiplying by multiples of 11, let's say 11n, multiply by n then multiply by 11. In this case,
    13×22 = 26×11 = 286
    immediately. Let's compare this with a big multiple,
    73×88
    My method:
    73×88 = 584×11 = 6424
    immediately.
    By the method in the video:
    73×88 = 56..56+24..24
    = 56..80+2..4
    = 56+8..2..4
    = 6424
    which may be easy to see, but I bet many people would not be able to make this calculation, making confusions in some steps.
    2) 25×41
    Man, really? Just do
    25×(40+1) = 25×40+25×1
    = 1000+25
    = 1025
    Done. I am not even compare this one.
    3) 74×68
    Use 5,
    74×68 = 75×68-68
    = 150×34-68
    = 300×17-68
    = 5100-68
    = 5032
    or complete 68 to get 70,
    74×68 = 74×70-74×2
    = 5180-148
    = 5032.

      These are great tricks and there's always a way to find one, with easier factor and a substraction.

      = 83..2
