Tutorial-2

Tutorial 2
Using VERTICALLY AND CROSSWISE you do not need to the multiplication tables beyond 5 X 5.
Suppose you need 8 x 7
8 is 2 below 10 and 7 is 3 below 10.Think of it like this:The answer is 56.The diagram below shows how you get it.You subtract crosswise 8-3 or 7 - 2 to get 5,the first figure of the answer.And you multiply vertically: 2 x 3 to get 6,the last figure of the answer.
That's all you do:
See how far the numbers are below 10, subtract onenumber's deficiency from the other number, andmultiply the deficiencies together.
7 x 6 = 42Here there is a carry: the 1 in the 12 goes over to make 3 into 4.
