6 × 8 = 48
6 multiplied by 8 equals 48
This shows 6 columns × 8 rows = 48 circles in total
Each row has 6 circles, and there are 8 rows
6 × 8 = 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 + 6 = 48
Adding row 1 of 8...
Additional information how to quickly calculate this multiplication:
- Hand method:
For numbers between 5 and 10, you can use this special method (this looks easier when visualized using palms, I will explain it later):
6 × 8 = ((6-5) + (8-5)) × 10 + (10-6) × (10-8)
= ((1 + 3) × 10) + (4 × 2)
= (4 × 10) + 8
= 48 - Plus method:
If you know 6 × 7 = 42, then 6 × 8 = 42 + 6 = 48 - By 2 method:
Since 8 is even, if you know 6 × 4 = 24, then 6 × 8 = 24 × 2 = 48 - Minus method:
If you know 6 × 9 = 54, then 6 × 8 = 54 - 6 = 48
