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):
8 × 6 = ((8-5) + (6-5)) × 10 + (10-8) × (10-6)
= ((3 + 1) × 10) + (2 × 4)
= (4 × 10) + 8
= 48 - Plus method:
If you know 8 × 5 = 40, then 8 × 6 = 40 + 8 = 48 - By 2 method:
Since 6 is even, if you know 8 × 3 = 24, then 8 × 6 = 24 × 2 = 48 - Minus method:
If you know 8 × 7 = 56, then 8 × 6 = 56 - 8 = 48
