MULTIPLIPLY, THEN SUBTRACT.

MULTIPLIPLY, THEN SUBTRACT.

When multiplying by 9, multiply by 10 instead, and then subtract the other number. For example,
23×9 = 230 - 23 = 207.
The same applies to other numbers near those for which multiplication is simplified:


23×51
= 23×50 + 23
= 2300/2 + 23
= 1150 + 23
= 1173.




87×48
= 87×50 - 87×2
= 8700/2 - 160 - 14
= 4350 - 160 - 14
= 4190 - 14
= 4176.
