Fun with Number 5

Rules: This is normally used for multiplication and in this case both the
units in digit i.e. the last numbers are 5. Also, the beginning numbers are
same. You will understand this as you see some examples.
25 x 25 = 6 | 25 (This one's easy, right?)
Explanation: As you see both the ending numbers are 5 and also they are
beginning with 2. So we have satisfied both the rules. Now how do we get
625. The first step is that you write down 25 on the right hand side. Why we
do so? Do not think about that. Just write 25 on the right hand side. Then we
take the number on the left hand side (of 25), in this case 2. And we multiply
it with the next higher digit number i.e. 3. Therefore we get the answer 2 x 3
= 6, which we write down on the right hand side. So we finally get the
answer as 625.
45 x 45 = 20 | 25
Explanation: As this one satisfies the rule too. Both the left numbers are
same - 4, and the ending numbers are 5. So without thinking the first thing
we do is write 25 on the right hand side. Then we take the left hand number
4 and multiply it with 5, hence we get 4 x 5 = 20 (the left side of our
answer).
135 x 135 = 182 | 25 (slightly tough)
Explanation: Both the rule has been satisfied. We write down 25 on the right
hand side. We multiple 13 with the next higher number and get 13 x 14 =
182. And there we have our answer 18225. Easy right?
Slight Modification to the Number 5 method
Rule: The ending number should add up to 10. Infact in the above case too
the ending number 5 + 5 added upto 10. And the left hand side number
should be same. This is very similar, so lets look at some example.
23 x 27 = 6 | 21 (I am sure that,not everyone finds this simple).
Explanation: Ending numbers 3 + 7 add upto 10. So the first rule is satisfied.
And both the number on left hand side are same i.e. 2. First thing you do is,
you multiply 3 x 7 = 21. And then like earlier you multiply 2 with the next
higher digit number i.e. 3. And we get 2 x 3 = 6 on the left hand side. Final
answer is 621.
62 x 68 = 42 | 16
Explanation: Both the rule have been satisfied. We multiply 8 x 2 as the add
upto 10 and we get the left hand side of the answer 16. Then we multiply 6
with the next higher digit number 7 and get 6 x 7 = 42
Fun with number 11
Now we try the tricks which can make calculation by 11 easy. We will
also learn how to multiply by 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, etc. As it is nothing but
11 x 2, 11 x 3, 11 x 4, 11 x 5, 11 x 6 respectively.
Steps involved:
1. To multiply a number by 11 put a 0 in the beginning and at the
end of the number.
2. Starting from the digit’s place add two consecutive digit.
Remember to go from right to left.
Examples
342 x 11 = 03420 = 0+3 /4 + 3/2 + 4/0 + 2 = 3762
Explanation: We added 0 at the end and the beginning of 342 and got 03420.
Now, as you see we broke the number by taking each consecutive number
and added them. The first part is 0 + 2 = 2, the first number of our answer,
then we took 2+4 and got 6, second number of our answer and so on.
4932 x 11 = 049320 = 0 + 4/4 + 9/3 +9/3 + 2/0+2 = 54252
Explanation: In this case when we add 3 + 9 we write down 2 and carry
forward 1, we again get 4 + 9 + 1 we write down 4 and carry forward 1. We
add 4 + 1 and get 5
In the above case if we need to multiply by 22. Then we first multiply by 2
and then by 11.
312 x 22 = 624 (312 x2) x 11 = 06240 = 0 +6/6 + 2/4 + 2/0 + 4 = 6864
Explanation: Here we are trying to multiply with 22. Hence we first multiply
the main number with 312 with 2 and get 312 x 2 = 624. And then multiply
the same number with 22. Rest of the steps remain the same.
312 x 22 = 03120 x 11 x 2 = (0+3 / 3 + 1 /2 + 1 /0 + 2) x 2 = 3432 x 2 =
6864
Explanation: This is the exact same sum as above. In this case you multiply
the end answer by 2 and get the exact same answer.
Similarly we can calculate any number into any multiple of 11. Even 11
x 11. We just repeat the process twice.

Fun with number 9

Part A (Original number and the number of 9 is same, for
example 234 x 999 but we cannot use this method for 234 x 9999
or 234 x 99)
Rules: As usual there is a left hand part of the answer and the right
hand part of the answer. When multiplying by 9 we subtract one from
the original number and write it down on the left hand side. Then we
subtract each number on the left hand side from 9 and write it down
on the right hand site (this will become clearer with the examples that
follow).
234 x 999 = 233 | 766
Explanation: We subtract one from 234 and write it down on the left
hand side i.e 234 - 1 = 233. Then we take each individual number
and subtract that number from 9 in the order - left to right. So we
subtract 9 - 2 = 7, then we subtract 9 - 3 = 6 and again 9 - 3 = 6.
Hence, we get the right part of our answer i.e 766
Common Mistake: As you see from the above example we subtract
9 from each individual number, but we did so from the left hand side
of our answer and not the original number. In simple words, we
should subtract individually from 233 and not from 234. This is a
common mistake I have found and would advice you to remember
this crucial point.
948224243 x 999999999 = 948224242 | 051775757
Explanation: Wow! I can beat the calculator. Most of the calculator
cannot perform calculation more than 12 digits and I doubt even your
mobile phones can do that. Here is how its done, we subtract 1 from
948224243 and get 948224242 . Then we subtract 9 - 9 get 0, then 9
- 4 = 5, then 9 - 8 and so on. I am sure by now you get the idea.
But now here is the question what if the number of 9's are more than
the number which we going to multiply, for example,
273 x 99999 ( we cannot do this as of now)
Part B (Original number is less then the number of 9's, for
example 234 x 99999)
Rules: Similar to above method, but just imagine 0's in front of the
original number. But make sure the number of 9's are more and not
less or equal.)
383 x 9999 will become 0383 x 9999 = 0382 | 9617
Explanation:It is simple, we imagine the number to be 0383. Subtract
one from it and get 0382. Then as usual we calculate 9 - 0 = 9, then 9
- 3 = 6 and so one.
383 x 999999 will become 000383 x 999999 = 000382 | 999617
Explanation: In this case we had 3 extra 9's. So we imagine 3 extra
0's in front of 383. Therefore our first case will be 000383 - 1 =
000382, which becomes the left part of the answer. And like before
we subtract 9 - 0 and get 9, then again 9 - 0 = 9 and again 9 - 0 = 9,
then 9 - 3 = 6 and so on.
Part C (Original number is more then the number of 9's, for
example 234 x 9, this method is tough to undestand so pay close
attention to this one)
Rules:I will directly goto the example in this case, as the rules will
confuse you at this level.
14 x 9 = 12 | 6
Explanation: From the number 14 we choose 1(the number in the
ten's digit), increase it by 1 i.e. 2 or we add + 1. Subtract that from 14
and we get 12. Next we subtract 4 from 10 and and get 6 i.e. 10 – 4 =
6. The method is confusing but once a person gets a hang of it, it’s
pretty easy.
24 x 9 = 21/6
Explanation: From the number 24 we choose 2(ten's digit); increase it
by 1 i.e. 3 or we add + 1 (2 + 1). Subtract that from 24 and we get 21
(24 -3). Next we subtract 4 from 10 and get 6 i.e. 10 – 4 = 6.
47 x 9 = 42/3
Steps involved: From the number 47 we choose 4(ten's digit);
increase it by 1 i.e. 5. Subtract that from 47 and we get 42 (47 - 5).
Next we subtract 7 from 10 and get 3 i.e. 10 – 7 = 3.
112 x 99 = 110/88
Steps involved: From the number 112 we choose 1; increase it by 1
i.e. 2 or we can say we add + 1 (1 + 1). Subtract that from 112 and
we get 110 (112 - 2). Next we subtract 99 from 12 and then add 1 i.e.
99 – 12 + 1 = 88.
112 x 9 = 100/8
Steps involved: From the number 112 we choose 11; increase it by 1
i.e. 12 or we can say we add + 1 (11 + 1). Subtract that from 112 and
we get 100 (112 - 12). Next we subtract 9 from 2 and then add 1 i.e. 9
–2+1=8
Add & Subtract Method
Rules: This method is based on selecting a proper base and then using the
Vedic maths method to calculate. Selecting a proper base is one of the most
important things in this method, which makes major calculations very
simple. See the example of different bases and make sure you use your wits
to choose a proper base while calculation. It works in the following manner.
9x9
9 – 1 [ We assume the base as 10 ]
9–1
8 /1
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 10.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 10. In this
case the difference is -1. So we write -1 on the right on side of this number.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case -1 x -1. So we get 1 as the
answer.
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract -1
from the number 9 and then we get the answer as 8. And the final answer as
81.
9 x 8 [ We assume the base as 10 ]
9–1
8–2
7 /2
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 10.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 10. In this
case the difference is -1 & -2. So we write -1 & -2 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case -1 x -2. So we get 2 as the
answer.
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract -2
from the number 9 or we subtract -1 from the number 8 and then we get the
answer as 7. And the final answer as 72.
11 x 12 [ We assume the base as 10 ]
11 + 1
12 + 2
13 /2
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 10.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 10. In this
case the difference is +1 & +2. So we write +1 & +2 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case +1 x +2. So we get 2 as
the answer.
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would add +2 from
the number 11 or we add +1 from the number 12 and then we get the answer
as 13. And the final answer as 132.
It is simple, isn't it?
91 x 91 [ We assume the base as 100 ]
91 – 9
91 – 9
82/81
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 100.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 100. In this
case the difference is -9 & -9. So we write -9 & -9 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case -9 x -9. So we get 81 as
the answer.
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract -9
from the number 91 and then we get the answer as 82. And the final answer
as 8281.
Now, we have moved on to higger numbers too.
You may practice higher numbers like 120 x 102 or 105 x 108. But
remember so far our base has only been 10 & 100. We will move on to
slightly complex task tomorrow. You may check the next few examples.
Solution is not given, but by now you should be used to doing these simple
calculation mentally.
888 x 998 [ We assume the base as 1000 ]
888 – 112
998 – 002
886/224
598 x 998 [ We assume the base as 1000 ]
598 – 402
998 – 002
596/804
Add & Subtract Method
Rules: This method is based on selecting a proper base and then using the
Vedic maths method to calculate. Selecting a proper base is one of the most
important things in this method, which makes major calculations very
simple. See the example of different bases and make sure you use your wits
to choose a proper base while calculation. It works in the following manner.
Importance of choosing the RIGHT BASE.

25 x 98 [ We assume the base as 100 ]

25 – 75
98 – 2
24/50
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 100.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 100. In this
case the difference is -2 & -75. So we write -2 & -75 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case -2 x -75. So we get 150 as
the answer. But since the base is 100 we can only use 2 up to 2 digit and we
will carry forward 1 to the left hand side
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract -2
from the number 25 or we subtract -75 from the number 98 and then we get
the answer as 23 but due to carry forward we add 1 and the answer turns out
to be 24. And the final answer as 2450.
So far we have looked at numbers where after addition/subtraction
from the base, both the numbers were either positive or negative. Now
lets consider the other way round.

12 x 8 [ We assume the base as 10 ]

12 + 2
8–2
10/-4 = 96
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 10.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 10. In this
case the difference is +2 & -2. So we write +2 & -2 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case +2 x -2. So we get -4 as
the answer.
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract -2
from the number 12 or we add +2 from the number 8 and then we get the
answer as 10.
However since the we have – 4 on the right hand side we subtract it from the
base and -1 from the left hand side.
And we get the answer 96
It is slightly confusing but you will get the hang of it pretty soon.
108 x 97 [ We assume the base as 100 ]
108 + 8
97 – 3
105/-24 = 104/76
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 100.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 100. In this
case the difference is +8 & -3. So we write +8 & -3 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case +8 x -3. So we get -24 as
the answer.
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract -3
from the number 108 or we add +8 from the number 97 and then we get the
answer as 105.
However since we have – 24 on the right hand side we subtract it from the
base and -1 from the left hand side.
And we get the answer as 10476
We have also been using the base such as 10, 100 & 1000. Now, lets try
some different base. Play close attention to the difference as it will help
you master this method.
49 x 49 [ We assume the base as 50 ]
49 – 1
49 – 1
48/01
24/01
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 50.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 50. In this
case the difference is -1 & -1. So we write -1 & -1 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case -1 x -1. So we get 1 as the
answer.
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract -1
from the number 49 or we subtract -1 from the number 49 (same thing in this
case) and then we get the answer as 48.
But since the base is 50 which is nothing but 100/2. So we divide 48 by 2
And we get the answer 2401.
Similar Example:
46 x 46 [ We assume the base as 50 i.e 100/2 ]
46 – 4
46 – 4
42/16
21/16
23 x 23 (BASE AS 20 i.e. 10 x 2)
23 + 3
23 + 3
26/9
52/9
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 20.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 20. In this
case the difference is +3 & +3. So we write +3 & +3 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case +3 x +3. So we get 9 as
the answer. NOTE: We write 9 as the answer and not 09 as the answer
because here the base is 10 x 2. That means the underlying base still
remains 10. And that’s why we just write one number on the right hand
side i.e. 9
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract +3
from the number 23 or we add +3 from the number 23 (same thing in this
case) and then we get the answer as 26.
But since the base is 20 which is nothing but 10 x 2. So we multiply the base
26 x 2.
And we get the answer 529.

23 x 23 (BASE AS 20 i.e. 100/5) [ Notice the above sum has the same
numbers]
23 + 3
23 + 3
26/09
5.20/09
5/29
Steps involved:-
We select the base as 20.
Then we check the difference for each number as compared to 20. In this
case the difference is +3 & +3. So we write +3 & +3 on the right on side of
these numbers respectively.
Then we multiply the right hand side. In this case +3 x +3. So we get 9 as
the answer. NOTE: We write the base as 09 as our basic base or main
base is 100/5. The whole idea is if the basic base or main base is a
multiple or division of 100 then we will have 2 digits on the left hand
side. And when the basic base of main base is a multiple of 10 then we
take only one digit on the left hand side, rest we carry forward to the
left hand side after doing the division.
Then we do cross addition/subtraction. In this case we would subtract +3
from the number 23 or we add +3 from the number 23 (same thing in this
case) and then we get the answer as 26.
But since the base is 20 which is nothing but 100/5. So we divide 26 by 5
and get the answer 5.20
Now whenever we get answer in decimal form after division we transfer it to
the right hand side by adding it. Therefore we add 20 to right hand side and
get the answer as 29
And we get the final answer as 529.
GOLDEN RULES FOR ADD SUBTRACT METHOD.

Choose the base according to your common sense so that the calculation
becomes easy.
If the base is 100 there will be 2 digits on the right hand side, if the base
is 10 there will be 1 digit on the right hand side, if the base is 1000 there
will be 3 digits on the right hand side and so on. And the extra digit you
carry over to the left hand side.

Remember to always divide the left hand side or multiply it first, if

required. And then minus right hand side (if negative) or carry forward
from left hand side (if positive).
If your answer is something like 24/-26 (with your base being 10). You
carry forward -2 to the left hand side. Then your answer will be 22/-6.
And then you subtract. This will give you the answer 21/4. However,
you can do it directly too, since you know by subtraction of 24 by 3 will
give you 21 and you will be able to carry 30 to the left hand side and
then you will be able to get your answer easily. i.e. 30 – 26 = 4.
Basic Multiplication But Mentally and Faster.
The reason we are learning this method is because it is not possible to do all
calculation using the add and subtract method. There are many other
methods involved but this is simple and easy.
Rules: This method simplifies our normal method of multiplication. Just
remember the following diagram when you multiplying 2 digit number with
a 2 digit number.

Steps involved:
We follow conventional method but we try to skip the extra work to reduce
time and effort.
First we multiply the right hand side number 4 x 4 (straight line). Write
down 16 as our answer
Then we multiply 5 x 4 and add it with 8 x 4 i.e. 5 x 4 + 8 x 4 (the cross).
We get 52 as our answer.
Then we multiply the left hand side number 5 x 8 (straight line). Write down
40 as our answer.
Then we carry forward 1 from 16 to the left hand side as we will have only
one digit. So we get 53 in the centre.
Then we carry forward 5 from 53 to the left hand side as we again will have
only one digit in the centre. So we get 3 in centre and on the left hand side
we get the answer 45

We get 31 as our answer.
Then we multiply the left hand side number 2 x 3 (straight line). Write down
6 as our answer.
Then we carry forward 3 from 35 to the left hand side as we will have only
one digit. So we get 34 in the centre.
Then we carry forward 3 from 34 to the left hand side as we again will have

We get 24 as our answer.
Then we multiply the left hand side number 6 x 0 (straight line). Write down
0 as our answer.
Then we carry forward 2 from 28 to the left hand side as we will have only
one digit. So we get 26 in the centre.
Then we carry forward 2 from 26 to the left hand side as we again will have
only one digit in the centre. So we get 6 in centre and on the left hand side
we get the answer 2.
Our final answer is 268.
Now, if we want to multiply a 3 digit number with a 3 digit number we
keep in mind the following diagram.

14/5/3/5/0
Steps involved:
1. First we multiply the right hand side number 2 x 5 (straight line).
Write down 10 as our answer
2. Then we multiply 4 x 5 and add it with 2 x 2 i.e. 4 x 5 + 2 x 2 (the first
cross). We get 24 as our answer.
3. Next we multiple 3 x 5 add it to 4 x 2 and again add that to 4 x 2 i.e. 3
x 5 + 4 x 2 + 4 x 2 (the star). And we get the answer 31.
4. Then we multiply 3 x 2 and add it with 4 x 4 i.e. 3 x 2 + 4 x 4 (the
second cross). We get 22 as our answer.
5. Then we multiply the left hand side number 3 x 4 (straight line). Write
down 12 as our answer.
6. Then we carry forward 1 from 10 to the left hand side as we will have
only one digit.
- We keep carrying on each number to the left hand side and we leave one
number in each case and hence we get the number 14/5/3/5/0
 1. Our final answer is 145350.

Write down 10 as our answer
2. Then we multiply 6 x 5 and add it with 3 x 2 i.e. 6 x 5 + 3 x 2 (the first
cross). We get 36 as our answer.
3. Next we multiple 8 x 5 add it to 0 x 2 and again add that to 6 x 3 i.e. 8
x 5 + 0 x 2 + 6 x 3 (the star). And we get the answer 58.
4. Then we multiply 3 x 8 and add it with 0 x 6 i.e. 3 x 8 + 0 x 6 (the
second cross). We get 24 as our answer.
5. Then we multiply the left hand side number 8 x 0 (straight line). Write
down 0 as our answer.
6. Then we carry forward 1 from 10 to the left hand side as we will have
only one digit.
- We keep carrying on each number to the left hand side and we leave one
number in each case and hence we get the number 3/0/1/7/0
Our final answer is 30170.

Let’s learn square using the add and subtract method.

In this method we again choose a base. This method is nothing but the
above method in a more simplified manner for calculating squares.

7 x 7 = (7-3)/3 x 3 = 4/9
By subtract and add method. Taking the base 10
7–3
7–3
(7-3)/ (-3 x -3) = 49
Look at the following examples
12 x 12 = (12 + 2)/2 x 2 = 14/ 4
14 x 14 = (14 + 4)/4 x 4 = 18/16 = 19/6 (remember the base is 10)
91 x 91 = (91 – 9)/9 x 9 = 82/81
95 x 95 = (95 – 5)/5 x 5 = 90/25
108 x 108 = (108 + 8)/8 x 8 =116/64
988 x 988 = (988 – 12)/12 x 12 = 976/144 (The base is 1000. Therefore we
do not need to carry 1 of 144 on the left hand side.
45 x 45 = (45 – 5)/5 x 5= 40/25 = 20/25 (The base is taken as 50 (100/2).
Therefore divide by 40 by 2)
45 x 45 = (45 – 5)/5 x 5 = 40/25 = 200/25 = 202/5 (The base is taken as 50
(10 x 5). Therefore we multiply 40 x 5 = 200 and the carry forward 2 from
left hand side to right hand side as the base is 10)
Squares using the formula:
(a + b) (a + b) = a2 + 2ab + b2
(a - b) (a - b) = a2 - 2ab + b2
This is simple enough to understand.
97 x 97 = (100 -3)(100-3) = 10000 – 600 + 9
108 x 108 = (100 + 8) (100 + 8) = 10000 + 1600 + 64
29 x 29 = (30 – 1) (30 – 1) = 900 -60 + 1 = 841
49 x 49 = (50 -1) (50 – 1) = 2500 – 100 + 1 = 2401
78 x 78 = (80 – 2) (80 – 2) = 6400 – 320 + 4 = 6084
Let’s try a different method to find squares now:
Method:
1. Square the units digit.
2. Tens digit x units digit x 2
3. Square of tens digit
Examples
42 x 42 = 16/16/4 = 1764 (we carry forward 1 from the centre calculation to
the left hand side)
Method:
1. Square the units digit. We get 4
2. Tens digit x units digit x 2. We get 16
3. Square of tens digit is 16.
23 x 23 = 4/12/9 = 5/2/9 (we carry forward 1 from the centre calculation to
the left hand side)
Method:
1. Square the units digit - 9
2. Tens digit x units digit x 2 - 12
3. Square of tens digit - 4
62 x 62 = 36/24/4=38/4/4
Method:
1. Square the units digit - 4
2. Tens digit x units digit x 2 - 24
3. Square of tens digit – 36
73 x 73 = 49/42/9 =53/2/9
26 x 26 = 4/24/36= 6/7/6
(We carry forward 3 to 24. That makes it 27. We put down 7 and carry
forward to the left 2. Thus we get 6 on the extreme left. And our answer is
676)
34 x 34 = 9 / 24 / 16 = 1156
42 x 42 = 16/16/4 = 1764
63 x 63 = 36/36/9 = 3969
This topic may be tricky so give close attention to this one.
We again follow the base system - Not exactly, but depending on the base
calculation will differ.
Consider base 10
Cube for 13
13 = (13 + 3 x 2)/(9 x 3)/3 x 3 x 3
= 19/27/27 (But since the base is 10 only one number will remain in each
left hand side.
Therefore answer is = 19/29/7
= 21/9/7.
Steps involved
1. First we double the excess number from the base 10 and add to the
original number i.e. 13- 10 = 3. Then 3 x 2(double the excess) + 13
(original number) = 19
2. Then we subtract 13 from base, get 3, which we multiply with 9 ( the
excess number of the left hand side number minus the base i.e. 19
-10 ). So basically - excess from original number from 10 x excess
from the left number which we got in step 1. We get 3 x 9 = 27.
3. Then we take the cube of the unit digit of the original number.
4. And doing the required calculation for the base 10, we get the answer
2197.
Cube for 15
15 = (15 + 5 x 2)/(15x5)/5 x 5 x 5
= 25/75/125
=25/87/5
=33/7/5
Steps involved
1. First we double the excess number from the base 10 and add to the
original number i.e. 15- 10 = 5. Then 5 x 2 + 15 (original number) =
25
2. Then we subtract 15 from base, get 5, which we multiply with 15 ( the
excess number of the left hand side number minus the base i.e. 25
-10.) So basically, 15 x 5 = 75.
3. Then we take the cube of the unit digit of the original number.
4. And doing the required calculation for the base 10, we get the answer
3375.
97 = (97 – 2 x 3)/(-3 x -9)/-3 x -3 x -3
= 91/27/-27
=91/26/73
Steps involved
1. First we double the excess number from the base 100 and subtract to
the original number i.e. 100 - 97 = -3. Then -3 x 2 -3 (original
number) = -9
2. Then we subtract 97 from base, get -3, which we multiply with -9
( the excess number of the left hand side number minus the base i.e.
100 - 91.). So basically, -3 x -9 = 27.
3. Then we take the cube of 100 – 97.
4. And doing the required calculation for the base 100, we get the
answer 912673.
In similar manner,
52 = (52 + 2 x 2)/(2 x 6)/08
= 56/12/08
= 14/06/08
104 = (100 + 3 x 4)/3 x 4 x 4/4 x 4 x 4 = 112/48/64
