This astonishing method for multiplying numbers is<br />

so easy because it works from left to right<br />

Suppose you want to know the cost of 6 hinges at<br />

73c each.<br />

� 73 x 6 = 438<br />

IN THE DIY SHOP<br />

We first multiply the 7 by 6 to get 42.<br />

We then multiply the 3 by 6 to get 18.<br />

42 18 = 438<br />

The 1 in the 18 is mentally carried back to the 42<br />

to make it 43.<br />

So any double figure number after the first involves<br />

carrying the first figure to the left and adding it on.<br />
