  1. 0:00before we start this video in 5 seconds
  2. 0:03can you quickly tell me how much is 86 *
  3. 0:0784 it is
  4. 0:097224 I know many of you would have
  5. 0:12struggled to find it in 5 seconds but I
  6. 0:15am making a series of mental math videos
  7. 0:18and after completing this series and
  8. 0:20with a bit of practice you will be able
  9. 0:23to do calculations like these faster
  10. 0:25than a calculator that is at a lightning
  11. 0:28fast speed yes yes even faster than the
  12. 0:31snap of Thanos and you will be able to
  13. 0:34amaze your friends and appear smarter in
  14. 0:36front of
  15. 0:38them okay so are you ready we will first
  16. 0:42start with the very basic which is
  17. 0:44multiplying any two digit number with 11
  18. 0:48how would you multiply 43 with
  19. 0:5111 yeah I know we can use the method we
  20. 0:54had learned in school but it will be a
  21. 0:57bit longer but using this trick it will
  22. 0:59be super fast so write four and three
  23. 1:03and in the center write 4 + 3 or 7
  24. 1:07that's it answer is
  25. 1:10473 although it's basic but it's super
  26. 1:14fast now 54 * 11 write five and four and
  27. 1:19in between write 5 + 4 or 9 amazing but
  28. 1:24you might wonder what if the sum is
  29. 1:27greater than or equal to 10 like 68 * 11
  30. 1:32write 6 then 8 and in the middle it will
  31. 1:34be 6 + 8 or 14 so take one to the carry
  32. 1:39and add with six to make it seven so the
  33. 1:42answer is
  34. 1:43748 C lightning fast now you might be
  35. 1:47thinking that I am sharing tricks only
  36. 1:49for specific numbers but that's not
  37. 1:52Mental Math don't worry this is only the
  38. 1:54beginning as this is the first part
  39. 1:57there are many more such tricks to come
  40. 2:00now the trick I taught you also works
  41. 2:02with three-digit numbers for example 35
  42. 2:052 * 11 write three and two now in Center
  43. 2:10first add both of them to get eight and
  44. 2:13now add 5 + 2 or 7 here that's it we get
  45. 2:203872 and if the sum is greater than N9
  46. 2:23then just carry like the previous one
  47. 2:26for example 5 74 * 11 so write five and
  48. 2:30four here then in the middle write 5 + 7
  49. 2:34or 12 and here 7 + 4 or 11 now carry one
  50. 2:40here to make it six and then carry one
  51. 2:42here to make it three so the answer is
  52. 2:466314 awesome we are still faster than
  53. 2:50the calculator now let us move to the
  54. 2:53next trick which is multiplying two
  55. 2:55two-digit numbers with the same first
  56. 2:57digit and ending in five
  57. 3:00like multiply 75 * 75 in 5 seconds you
  58. 3:05might be blank right now am I correct so
  59. 3:08the trick here is to multiply seven with
  60. 3:10the next number or eight to get 56 and
  61. 3:13then simply add 25 to it this will be 5
  62. 3:176
  63. 3:1825 okay now try 35 *
  64. 3:2235 3 * 4 is 12 and then add
  65. 3:2725 that's it faster than a calculator
  66. 3:31isn't it now tell me in the comments
  67. 3:33what will be 95 * 95 great now are you
  68. 3:39ready for the next trick it is
  69. 3:41multiplying two two-digit numbers with
  70. 3:44the same first digit of both the numbers
  71. 3:46and the sum of the ending digits is 10
  72. 3:49for example 44 * 46 here the first digit
  73. 3:54of both the numbers are the same which
  74. 3:56is four and the sum of the ending digits
  75. 3:59is four 4 + 6 or 10 now do four * its
  76. 4:03next number or five which is 20 and then
  77. 4:074 * 6 or 24 so the answer is
  78. 4:122024 isn't this cool now let us try 67 *
  79. 4:1763 6 * 7 is 42 and 7 * 3 is 21 so we get
  80. 4:244 22 1 awesome we're still beating
  81. 4:28calculators in spe speed okay now tell
  82. 4:31me in the comments what will be the
  83. 4:34value of 89 * 81 you are already doing
  84. 4:38calculations faster like a human
  85. 4:41calculator lastly don't forget to
  86. 4:43practice this trick and you'll get even
  87. 4:46faster if I get 10,000 likes in this
  88. 4:49video I will make part two of it which
  89. 4:52will be much more interesting and super
  90. 4:54fun so good
