  • 13x10 + 2x13 ... easier...

  • It's basically just FOIL with digits instead of terms.

    (10+2)*(10+3) = 10*10+2*10+10*3+2*3 = 100+20+30+6 = 100+50+6 = 156

  • @Keiko8383

    True and simple, although many people don't know how this works, and only do this:

    (10+2)*(10+3) = 10*10 + 10*2 + 3*10 = 150.... they just forget some little parts and with using these tricks they won't.

  • this is pretty useless...

    how about just doing it inside your head?

  • lol, 3 + 2 = 3... ow oeps... 5 :P

  • 18*64 = ?

    its inefficient

  • Duh.. I already said that before.

  • Comment removed

  • To the skeptics: This will work even with digits greater than 4...it's merely a pictorial way to look at multiplication, as you've always done:

    12 * 13 = (10 + 2) * (10 + 3)

    = 10*10 + 10*3 + 2*10 + 2*3

    = 100 + 5*10 + 6*1

    So you would count 1 dot on the left, 5 in the middle, 6 on the right, and then write 156.

  • @Mowicz Yep, it's FOIL with digits instead of terms. (or with terms if you break it out like you did)

  • or you just take a calculator ..

  • Stupid ... -_-"

    You don't like math, do you?

  • No, i just go outside some now and then. :S

  • this only works with numbers without 4 and up

    D=digits

    1D*1D easy on about 9% of all problems

    1D*2D easy on about 2.7% of all problems

    2D*2D easy on about .81% of all problems

  • What method do you mean? The first method always work, it's only not efficient if you use nubers higher than 5 like 9

  • bedankt ;) ;)

  • welke methode gebruikte je?

  • to do 22x15... all u need to do is just half 22 which is 11 and then double the 15 do 30.. no u have 11x30... which is equal 330... easy?

  • Yes, it is. every thing times 11 is easy. =P

  • if 22x15= how to do

  • the first one will help you.

  • the last trick will only work with nummbers in the ten.(10 - 19)

    As a number is higher than 19 you have to do it like this:

    12 x 13 , is than 3 x 2 (13-10=3)

    12 x 21 , is than 11 x 2 (21-10=11)

  • haha... nice one... ;)
