Vedic Mathematics Tricks

Note: This article is related to previous article . If you understand those terms then continue to this article. However, you can continue with this article. But, if you wish to learn from start then, click here . This method is called, Nikhilam Sutra . Let us first take up a very easy and simple illustrative example ( i.e. the multiplication of single-digit numbers above 5 ) and see how this can be done without previous knowledge of the higher multiplications of the multiplication-tables . Just now, we state and explain the actual procedure, step by step. Multiplication using a base of 10. Example 1. Multiply 9 by 8 Consider the base number as 10 since it is near to both the numbers. Step 1. Put the two numbers 9 and 8 above and below on the left-hand side. Step 2. Subtract each of them from the base (10) and write down the remainders (1 and 2) on the right-hand side with a connecting minus sign (-) between them, to sho...

Before we start, Let us, understand the following two terms carefully, these will help you to find multiplication in faster and easy way. Deviation : The difference between the number and the base is termed as deviation . Deviation may be positive or negative . Positive deviation is written without the positive sign and the negative deviation , is written using a bar or negative sign on the number. Base : Using this multiplication techniques, we relate each number very close to another number called base . See the following table to understand these terms. Number Base Deviation 18 10 18-10=8 8 10 8-10=-2 95 100 95-100=-5 111 100 111-100=11 994 1000 994-1000=-6 1042 1000 ...
