mathematics skills

Are you ready to give your mathematics skills a boost? These simple math tricks can help you perform calculations more quickly and easily. They also come in handy if you want to impress your teacher, parents, or friends.

01



  2. The Answer Is 2
  3. Think of a number.
  4. Multiply it by 3.
  5. Add 6.
  6. Divide this number by 3.
  7. Subtract the number from Step 1 from the answer in Step 4.

The answer is 2.



  1. Same Three-Digit Number
  2. Think of any three-digit number in which each of the digits is the same. Examples include 333, 666, 777, and 999.
  3. Add up the digits.
  4. Divide the three-digit number by the answer in Step 2.

The answer is 37.



  1. Six Digits Become Three
  2. Take any three-digit number and write it twice to make a six-digit number. Examples include 371371 or 552552.
  3. Divide the number by 7.
  4. Divide it by 11.
  5. Divide it by 13.

The order in which you do the division is unimportant!

The answer is the three-digit number.

Examples: 371371 gives you 371 or 552552 gives you 552.

  1. A related trick is to take any three-digit number.
  2. Multiply it by 7, 11, and 13.

The result will be a six-digit number that repeats the three-digit number.

Example: 456 becomes 456456.



          

          The 11 Rule

          This is a quick way to multiply two-digit numbers by 11 in your head.

  1. Separate the two digits in your mind.
  2. Add the two digits together.
  3. Place the number from Step 2 between the two digits. If the number from Step 2 is greater than 9, put the one's digit in the space and carry the ten's digit.

Examples: 72 x 11 = 792.

57 x 11 = 5 _ 7, but 5 + 7 = 12, so put 2 in the space and add the 1 to the 5 to get 627



 Memorizing Pi

To remember the first seven digits of pi, count the number of letters in each word of the sentence:

"How I wish I could calculate pi."

This becomes 3.141592.



  1. Contains the Digits 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8
  2. Select a number from 1 to 6.
  3. Multiply the number by 9.
  4. Multiply it by 111.
  5. Multiply it by 1001.
  6. Divide the answer by 7.

The number will contain the digits 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, and 8. 

Example: The number 6 yields the answer 714285.




Multiply Large Numbers in Your Head

To easily multiply two double-digit numbers, use their distance from 100 to simplify the math:

  1. Subtract each number from 100.
  2. Add these values together.
  3. 100 minus this number is the first part of the answer.
  4. Multiply the digits from Step 1 to get the second part of the answer.

Rules of divisibility part -1

Rules of divisibility In Vedic mathematics, it can be determined whether any part of any other number can be given completely without dividing it by several methods. These methods are based on the law of divisibility. By using these rules, calculations related to factors, parts etc. are simplified. Law of divisibility by number 2 :- If unit digit of given number is divisible by 2 then the given number is divisible by 2 also.                                                                 or  If unit digit of given number is 0,2,4,6 or 8 , then given number is divisible by 2. Example :- 10 ,32 ,74 ,108 ,2058 etc. Law of divisibility by number 3 :- If the sum of digits of given number is divisible by 3, then the number is divisible by 3 also. Illustration 1:-  In 546532 sum of digits=5+4+6+5+3+2=25 25 is not divisible by 3, Hence the number 546532 is not divisible by 3. Illustration 2:-  In  287286 sum of digits=2+8+7+2+8+6=33 33 is divisible by 3, Hence the number 287286 is divisibl

Octal and Hexadecimal Number

Complement of a Number    Types of Number system    Convert Decimal to Binary If you are new to this article, I strongly recommend to read our previous article before preceding this. In our previous article, we had already seen that binary number has a base of 2. It means that binary number contains 2 1 = 2 combinations which are 0 and 1. Similarly, Octal and Hexadecimal number has a fixed number of combinations. As we earlier know that octal has a base 8, then it contains 8 digits through 0 to 7 which means 2 3 =8 combinations and Hexadecimal has a base 16 which means it has 2 4 =16 combinations.                 If you are focusing on a sequence i.e. octal, hexadecimal. They are the combinations of increasing power of 2. Octal – 2 3 , Hexadecimal - 2 4 This power indicates how many bits are in a number for a particular number system Octal has 3 bits Hexadecimal has 4 bits This can be clear understand by following diagram-   Explain – In this diagram, first we co

Hunters of the Animal World

    In the cycle of life, predators always occupy an important position. They are killers. But they kill, only to 'kill' their hunger. In fact, the story of the animal kingdom is full of predators trying to catch prey, and the prey trying to outwit predators. It is the balance between the two that takes the drama of life forward. In the wild, there is no place for the weak, whether it's the predator or the prey, and only the fittest survives. The hunters keep populations healthy by weeding out the old and the sick. Of course, there are also creatures that steal the prey caught by others, like hyenas.      We have collected information about some animals for which you must know. 1 . Bengal Tigers : The Bengal Tiger is found in the rainforests and grasslands of Bangladesh, Bhutan Burma, China, India and Nepal.
