| Squaring a 2-digit number ending in 4 |
1. Take a 2-digit number ending in 4. 2. Square the 4; the last digit is 6: _ _ _ 6 (keep carry, 1.) 3. Multiply the first digit by 8 and add the carry (1); the 2nd number will be the next to the last digit: _ _ X 6 (keep carry). 4. Square the first digit and add the carry: X X _ _.
Example:
1. If the number is 34, 4 × 4 = 16 (keep carry, 1); the last digit is _ _ _ 6. 2. 8 × 3 = 24 (multiply the first digit by 8), 24 + 1 = 25(add the carry): the next digit is 5: _ _ 56. (Keep carry, 2.)
3. Square the first digit and add the carry, 2: 1 1 5 6. 4. So 34 × 34 = 1156.
See the pattern?
1. For 84 × 84, 4 × 4 = 16 (keep carry, 1); the last digit is _ _ _ 6. 2. 8 × 8 = 64 (multiply the first digit by 8),64 + 1 = 65 (add the carry): the next digit is 5: _ _ 5 6. (Keep carry, 6.)
3. Square the first digit and add the carry, 6: 7 0 5 6. 4. So 84 × 84 = 7056. |
