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 × 7 = ((8-5) + (7-5)) × 10 + (10-8) × (10-7)
= ((3 + 2) × 10) + (2 × 3)
= (5 × 10) + 6
= 56 - Plus method:
If you know 8 × 6 = 48, then 8 × 7 = 48 + 8 = 56 - Minus method:
If you know 8 × 8 = 64, then 8 × 7 = 64 - 8 = 56
