Fun way of multiplication

Place your fingers as in the below image and number the fingers from 1 to 10.

Example

Consider the multiplication of 4 × 9.

Step 1:

Here 4 is to be multiplied by 9.

So, fold the 4th finger and count the ones before the folded finger.

Number of fingers before the folded finger = 3 fingers

Multiply the number by 10, = 3 × 10 = 30 -----> (1)

(as shown in the below figure)

Step 2:

Count the fingers after the folded finger = 6 -----> (2)

(as shown in the below figure)

Step 3:

Add (1) and (2),

= 30 + 6 = 36

Therefore the solution to our problem 4 × 9 = 36 is easily found using the above trick.

Note:

If there is no finger below/above the considered (folded) finger, then consider the value as zero (0).

Play the same for the below multiplications

1 × 9 = ?

2 × 9 = ?

3 × 9 = ?

4 × 9 = ?

5 × 9 = ?

6 × 9 = ?

7 × 9 = ?

8 × 9 = ?

9 × 9 = ?

10 × 9 = ?
