I tested the box multiplication system and the squaring stuff this morning.

Can't figure out how it works, but is works.

Just good old numbers fun, I guess.

I remember a trick for multiplying by 11.

34 x 11 is calculated by splitting 34 and using the sum for the middle digit.

or

34 is 3 (3+4) 4 or 374
45x11 is 495
55x11 is 5 (10) 5 or 605

Thank you so much for this and the earlier one of squaring. I sent the links to my homeschooling daughter and she loves this guy.

I hated Algebra and Geometry in high school and barely passed it . However , I have a special gift for doing addition , subtraction and multiplication in my head at lightening speed . Super fast at doing calculations on a blackboard , too . Amaze my English students and the math teachers at my JHS in Japan . ^_^

Is this part of the common core garbage?

I would have been done with the multiplication problem in half the time doing it the traditional way.
