  2. Napier's bones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napier's_bones

    Multiplication by a multi-digit number. The third example computes 825 × 913. The corresponding bones to the leading number are placed in the board. For this example, the bones 8, 2, and 5 were placed in the proper order as shown below. First step of solving 825 × 913. To multiply by a multi-digit number, multiple rows are reviewed.

  3. Multiplication algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication_algorithm

    Multiplication algorithm. A multiplication algorithm is an algorithm (or method) to multiply two numbers. Depending on the size of the numbers, different algorithms are more efficient than others. Efficient multiplication algorithms have existed since the advent of the decimal numeral system .

  4. Grid method multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid_method_multiplication

    Grid method multiplication. The grid method (also known as the box method) of multiplication is an introductory approach to multi-digit multiplication calculations that involve numbers larger than ten. Because it is often taught in mathematics education at the level of primary school or elementary school, this algorithm is sometimes called the ...

  5. Karatsuba algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karatsuba_algorithm

    The Karatsuba algorithm is a fast multiplication algorithm. It was discovered by Anatoly Karatsuba in 1960 and published in 1962. [1] [2] [3] It is a divide-and-conquer algorithm that reduces the multiplication of two n -digit numbers to three multiplications of n /2-digit numbers and, by repeating this reduction, to at most single-digit ...

  6. Product (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_(mathematics)

    Product (mathematics) In mathematics, a product is the result of multiplication, or an expression that identifies objects (numbers or variables) to be multiplied, called factors. For example, 21 is the product of 3 and 7 (the result of multiplication), and is the product of and (indicating that the two factors should be multiplied together).

  7. Multiplication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiplication

    The product of two numbers or the multiplication between two numbers can be defined for common special cases: natural numbers, integers, rational numbers, real numbers, complex numbers, and quaternions. Product of two natural numbers 3 by 4 is 12. The product of two natural numbers , is defined as:

  8. Mental calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_calculation

    To easily multiply 2 digit numbers together between 11 and 19 a simple algorithm is as follows (where a is the ones digit of the first number and b is the ones digit of the second number): (10+a)×(10+b) 100 + 10×(a+b) + a×b which can be visualized as three parts to be added: 1 xx yy for example: 17×16 1 = 100 13 (7+6) = 10×(a+b) 42 (7×6 ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lattice_multiplication

    As an example, consider the multiplication of 58 with 213. After writing the multiplicands on the sides, consider each cell, beginning with the top left cell. In this case, the column digit is 5 and the row digit is 2. Write their product, 10, in the cell, with the digit 1 above the diagonal and the digit 0 below the diagonal (see picture for ...
