Find the Square of a number ending with 5 in seconds Ok, so it is very easy to square 25. That must be on your tips or you can directly multiply 25 × 25. But, what about 725? Here, Vedic maths tricks come into action. Let’s see how: Step 1: Multiply Ten’s digit number with its succeeding (next) number. = 72 × (72 + 1) = 72 × 73 = 5256 Step 2: Find the square of the unit digit. Here, our unit digit is 5. = The Square of 5 will be 25. Step 3: Write down the answers to step 1 and step 2 together. = 525625. Here’s your answer Yes! It is that easy. In just three steps, you can square any digit ending with 5 in a few seconds. Divide a large number (any digit) by 5 These Vedic Maths Tricks are by far the easiest of all the tricks mentioned here. Yes, you can divide any large or small numbers with 5 in a jiffy. Hey! Wait. We are not just talking about numbers ending with 5. But, other numbers as well. Actually, any number with any number of digits. Let’s divide 67834 by 5 Step 1: Multiply the number by 2. = 67834 × 2 = 135668 Step 2: Move a decimal point to the left. = 13566.8 The left side of the decimal point is your answer. Oh! Yes. Just in two steps. You got your answer: 13566. We dare you to try the same Maths Trick with larger numbers and do let us know, how it worked for you. Multiply any 2-Digit number by 11 This is again a very simple trick that will allow to you quickly multiply any two-digit number with 11.

Did you notice that the sum of these digits was 17? So, we have only considered 7 in between and 1 carried to add up to 9 and it became 10. 8 got copied down as it is. And Voila! You got your answer. Aren’t you finding these Maths Tricks super fun? Have, a look at this video for a better understanding:

Multiply any number by 12

You won’t believe that this ‘multiply any number by 12’ trick can b applied anywhere. If you try to multiply a large number, let’s say, 765843 by 12, then it will take at least 3-5 minutes in the calculation. And, will definitely require pen and paper. But, what if we say that you can do the same calculation in your head? Have a look at a few of those Maths Tricks to help you do that:

Chalo, let’s take the same number, 765843. We have to multiply it by 12.

Step 1: Start from the unit digit and double it.

= 3 + 3 = 6 (Keep it side)

Step 2: Now, double the next digit and add the result to the digit on the right.

= 4 + 4 = 8 ; 8 + 3 = 11. Keep the unit digit and carry forward the ten’s digit. (That means, keep 1 and carry forward another 1 to the left side.)

Step 3: Now double the next digit 8 and add the result to the digit on the right.

= 8 + 8 = 16 ; and then, 16 + 4 = 20 (keep 0 and carry forward 2 to the left side.)

9190116

Step 4: Now double the next digit, that is 5.

= 5 + 5 = 10 ; add to the digit to the right ; 10 + 8 = 18 ; Plus the carry forward digit that is 2 in it. You get 20

Now carry forward 2 to the next digit in the left.

Step 5: Next number in the series is 6.

= 6 + 6 = 12 ; Add the carry forward that is 2. 12 + 2 =14 ; Now, plus the number in the right. 14 + 5 = 19 ( Keep 9 here and carry forward 1.)

Step 6: Same you will do till the end. Double the digit. Add the carry forward and add the number to the right. This is it.

Step 6: Combine all the numbers you get in all the steps. You will get your digit: 9190116 is your answer.
