Quantitative Concepts

Multiplying 2 digit numbers where the tens’ digit is the same and the units’ digit add up to 10
E.g.: 42 x 48
1. First multiply the units digit of the two numbers: 2 x 8 = 16
2. Then multiply the tens digit by its succeeding number, 4x(4+1) = 4x5 = 20.
3. The final answer is 2016. 
Multiplying 2 digit numbers where the tens’ digit numbers add up to 10 and the units’ digit is the same
E.g.: 44 x 64
1. First find the multiplication of the last 2 digits of both the numbers i.e. 4x4 = 16
2. Multiply the tens’ digits and add the common digit to the multiplication i.e. (4x6)+4 = 28
3. The final answer is 2816
