1. VEDIC MATHEMATICS

2. What is vadic maths?
Vedic mathematics is the name given to the ancient system of mathematics
It’s a unique technique of calculations based on simple principles and rules , with which any mathematical problem - be it arithmetic, algebra, geometry or trigonometry can be solved mentally

3. Instant calculations:
All from 9 and the last from 10 to perform substractions.
e.g =543
VERTICALLY AND CROSSWISE you don’t need to the multiplication tables beyond 5x5.
e.g. 8x7;7x6;

4. Instant calculations:
VERTICALLY AND CROSSWISE to write the answer straight down!
e.g.
Multiply crosswise & add to get the numerator, & multiply the denominators to get the denominator.

5. Instant calculations:
Quick way to square numbers that end 5 =>BY ONE MORE THAN THE ONE BEFORE.
e.g.
i)The first number (7)multiplied by the number”one more”,which is 8;
ii)Is always25;

6. Instant calculations:
Method for multiplying numbers where the first figures are the same and the last figures add up to 10.
e.g.
i)We multiply 3x4=12;
ii)We multiply the last figures;

7. Instant calculations:
Multiplying a number by 11.
e.g.26 x 11=286;77x11=847;
i)we put the total of the 2-figures between the 2-figures;
Method for diving by 9.
e.g.43/9=4;232/9=25,(r.2+3+2=7)
i)The first figure of 43 is 4=>the answer
ii)Reminder 43=>4+3=7

8. Multiplaying by 12-shortcut
e.g. 12 X17;
i)We multiply the 1(of12)by the number we’re multiplaing =>1x17=17;
ii)Then => 17x10=170;
iii)Multiply the 2x17=34;
iv)Add =204;

9. Is it dividible by 4?
For 4 to divide into any number we have to make sure that the last number is even;
e.g.1234/4=?
i) 4+(2x3)=10 =>4 goes into 10,two times with a reminder 2,doesn’t go in evenly;
but, /4=?
i) 6+(2x5)=16,&4 goes in 16 evenly;

10. Adding time  A simple way to add hours and minutes together:
Let's add 1 hr and 35 minutes and 3 hr 55 minutes together.
i) =490
ii) No matter what the hours and minutes are,just add the 40 time constant to the sub total.
=>490+40=530 (finaly 5h.30min)

11. Kilos to pounds How to convert Kilos to Pounds, & Vice Versa?
Converting Kilos to pounds:
e.g.86 kilos into pounds:
i)Multiply the kilos by 2;
=>86x2=172;
ii)Divide the answer by 10;
172/10=17,2;
iii) i)+ii)=189,2;
=>86kilos=189,2pounds

12. Temperature conversions
This is a shortcut to convert Fahrenheit to Celsius and Vice Versa;
e.g.74°F=?°C
74F-30=44;
ii)44/2=22 °C;
74 Fahrenheit=22Celsius

13. Converting Kilometres to Miles
Useful method for when travelling & need to know what kilometres to miles are;
Formula=> number of (km / 8 ) X 5
e.g.80 km into miles;
=>(80/8)x5=50 miles

14. To sum up:
Vedic Mathematics is becoming popular all over the world due to the following: * It helps a person to solve problems times faster. * It reduces burden (Need to learn tables up to nine only) * It provides one line answer. * It is a magical tool to reduce scratch work and finger counting. * It increases concentration. * Time saved can be used to answer more questions.
