Applying the rule: - Multiply the tens digit by the next higher number: 3 x (34) =3 x 4=12 - Multiply the ones digits together: 4 x 6= 24 Combine the two results to get the final answer: 1224 So, 34 x 36=1224. Hence, the correct answer is option B Text Solution: Ignore the last digit (5), leaving us with 25. Multiply 25 (the hundreds and tens digits) by the next higher number, which is 26: 25 x 26 = 650 Append 25 to the result: 65025 So, 2557 = 65025 Hence, the correct answer is option C Text Solution: Using the method, 79? = (7)*(9)" +2 7x9) 79° = (49) (81) +126) 79? = (498 + 126)1 79? = 6241 Hence the correct answer is option B Text Solution: Using the method, n(nel)=n? + 1 15x16 = 15? + 15 = 225 4 15 = 240 Hence, the correct answer is option A Text Solution: as Q7 as This product is of the form n(n+2). We know that, n(n+2) = (n +1)? — 1 So, 5 x 27 = (25 +1)? — 1 = (26)?-1 = 676 —1 = 675 Thus, 25 x 27 = 675 Hence, the correct answer is option A Text Solution: Multiplying by 10 and then dividing by 2. Multiply 789 by 10 to get 7890. Divide 7890 by 2 to get the final answer. 730 — 3945 $0,789 x 5=3945 Hence, the correct answer is option B. Text Solution: Start from the last digit and work our way to the first. Write down the last digit, which is 8. ‘Add the last two digits: 7 + 8 = 15, write down 5, carry over 1 ‘Add the next pair plus the carryover: 6 +7 + 1= 14, write down 4, carry over 1. Continue this pattern until you reach the first digit. The process will look like this: 12345678 + 12345678 135802458 So, we get 12345678 x 11= 135,802,458 Hence, the correct answer is option A Text Solution: Let's apply the dot product method to the numbers 56 and 78. Multiply the tens digits: 5 x 7=35 Multiply the cross pairs and add them: (5 x 8) +(6 | PW Websitea9 Multiply the units digits: 6 x 8 = 48. Place the products in a grid: 35 +82 + 48 4368 So, 56x78 = 4368 Hence, the correct answer Is option C. Text Solution: Let's apply the dot product method to the numbers 68 and 254. Firstly multiply units digits: 8 x 4=32 Write 2 and carry 3 forward. Cross multiply and add: (5 x 8) + (6 x 4) = 64 Add carry 3, $0, 64+3=67 Write 7 and carry 6 forward. aio Multiply 5 by 6 and 8 by 2, add both along with the carry So, (5 x 6)+(8x 2)+6=52 Write 2 and carry 5 forward Multiply hundreds and tens place numbers and add the carry, So,6x2+5=17 So, 68 x 254=17,272 Hence, the correct answer is option A Text Solution: Both numbers are above 100. 102 is 2 more than 100, and 103 is 3 more than 100. Choose one number and add the excess of the 102+3 = 105 or 103 + 2 = 105. Multiply the excesses together: 2 x 3=06 Write the product of the excesses to the step 1 result: 10506 So, 102 x 103 = 10506 Hence, the correct answer is option A 2 Android App | iOS App | PW Website
