Based on CRISS CROSS Technique

Dhaval Bathia
In this technique, we will see how to multiply
Algebraic Identities.
Please refer to the technique of CRISS-CROSS
multiplication before studying this technique.

Let us suppose we want to multiply:

a + b
x a + 3b

Dhaval Bathia
We follow step (A) as seen before:

A) * *

* *
a + b
X a + 3b
3b
2
We get the answer as (b x 3b) equals 3b
2
.

We follow step (B) as seen before:

B) * *

* *
a + b
X a + 3b
We cross-multiply and add. (a x 3b) + (a x b)
is 3ab + ab = 4ab.
4ab

We follow step (C) as seen before:

A) * *

* *
a + b
X a + 3b
+3b
2
We get the answer as (a x a) equals a
2
.
a
2
The final answer is a
2
+ 4ab + 3b
2

+4ab

The same technique can be used to multiply 3-digit, 4-digit and other higher
order numbers
