TO CALCULATE REMINDER ON DIVIDING THE NUMBER BY 27 AND 37 Let me

explain this rule by taking examples

consider number 34568276, we have to calculate the reminder on diving this number by 27 and 37
respectively.

make triplets as written below starting from units place

34.........568..........276

now sum of all triplets = 34+568+276 = 878

divide it by 27 we get reminder as 14

divide it by 37 we get reminder as 27 EXAMPLE.other examples for the clarification of the rule

let the number is 2387850765

triplets are 2...387...850...765

sum of the triplets = 2+387+850+765 = 2004

on revising the steps we get

2......004

sum = 6

divide it by 27 we get reminder as 6

divide it by 37 we get reminder as 6Is this maths trick helpful? (12156) (4864) Post / Read

TO CALCULATE REMINDER ON DIVIDING THE NUMBER BY 7 11 AND 13

Let me explain this rule by taking examples

consider number 34568276, we have to calculate the reminder on diving this number by 7 11 and
13 respectively.

make triplets as written below starting from units place

34.........568..........276

now alternate sum = 34+276 = 310 and 568

and difference of these sums = 568-310 = 258

divide it by 7 we get reminder as 6

divide it by 11 we get reminder as 5

divide it by 13 we get reminder as 11 EXAMPLE.other examples:-


consider the number 4523895099854

triplet pairs are 4...523...895...099...854

alternate sums are 4+895+854=1753 and 523+099=622

difference = 1131

revise the same tripling process

1......131

so difference = 131-1 = 130

divide it by 7 we get reminder as 4

divide it by 11 we get reminder as 9

divide it by 13 we get reminder as 0Is this maths trick helpful? (4883) (1927)

TO CALCULATE REMINDER ON DIVIDING THE NUMBER BY 3

SQUARE OF NUMBERS NEAR TO 100 Let me explain this rule by taking examples

96^2 :-

First calculate 100-96, it is 4

so 96^2 = (96-4)----4^2 = 9216

similarly

106^2 :-

First calculate 106-100, it is 6

so 106^2 = (106+6)----6^2 = 11236 EXAMPLE.An other case arises

110^2 = (110+10)----100 = (120+1)----00 = 12100

similarly

89^2 = (89-11)----121 = (78+1)----21 = 7921Is this maths trick helpful? (4174) (1340) Post /

SQUARE OF ANY 2 DIGIT NUMBER Let me explain this trick by taking examples

67^2 = [6^2][7^2]+20*6*7 = 3649+840 = 4489

similarly

25^2 = [2^2][5^2]+20*2*5 = 425+200 = 625

Take one more example


97^2 = [9^2][7^2]+20*9*7 = 8149+1260 = 9409

Here [] is not an operation, it is only a separation between initial 2 and last 2 digits
EXAMPLE.Here an extra case arises

Consider the following examples for that

91^2 = [9^2][1^2]+20*9*1 = 8101+180 = 8281Is this maths trick helpful? (4589) (1446) Post /

MULTIPLICATION OF 2 TWO-DIGIT NUMBERS WHERE THE FIRST DIGIT OF


BOTH THE NUMBERS ARE SAME AND THE LAST DIGIT OF THE TWO NUMBERS
SUM TO 10 Let me explain this rule by taking examples

To calculate 56×54:

Multiply 5 by 5+1. So, 5*6 = 30. Write down 30.

Multiply together the last digits: 6*4 = 24. Write down 24.

The product of 56 and 54 is thus 3024. EXAMPLE.Understand the rule by 1 more example

MULTIPLICATION OF TWO NUMBERS THAT DIFFER BY 2 (This trick only works if


you have memorised or can quickly calculate the squares of numbers. When two numbers differ
by 2, their product is always the square of the number in between these numbers minus 1.Let me
explain this rule by taking examples

18*20 = 19^2 - 1 = 361 - 1 = 360

25*27 = 26^2 - 1 = 676 - 1 = 675 EXAMPLE.Understand the rule by 1 more example 49*51 =
