I noticed that the answer to 9 x __ always began with a numeral one less than __ and the two numerals of the answer would add up to 9.

The answer to 9 x 5 would therefore start with a 4 and had to add up to 9.

4 + ___ = 9

4+ 5 = 9 , so the answer to 9 x 5 is 45.

Here’s some fun math:

1 x 8 + 1 = 9
12 x 8 + 2 = 98
123 x 8 + 3 = 987
1234 x 8 + 4 = 9876
12345 x 8 + 5 = 98765
123456 x 8 + 6 = 987654
1234567 x 8 + 7 = 9876543
12345678 x 8 + 8 = 98765432
123456789 x 8 + 9 = 987654321
