Speed Maths Session 2B

Dear Friends,


THE SPEED MATHEMATICS METHOD


I am now going to show you the speed mathematics way of working with two digit near to 100 number multiplication in this session


The problem now looks like this:


98


x 96


We now look at each number and ask, how many more do we need to make 100?


We start with the 98. If we have 98, how many more do we need to make 100?


The answer is 2. 98 plus 2 equals 100. We write 2 next to the 98. Our equation now looks like this:


98 - 02


x 96






We now go to 96. How many more to make 100? The answer is 4.


We write 4 next to the 96.


This is how the problem looks now:


98 - 02


x 96 - 04






We now take away, or subtract, crossways or diagonally. We either


subtract 2 from 96 or 4 from 98. It doesn’t matter which way we subtract—


the answer will be the same, so choose the calculation that looks


easier. Two from 96 is 94, or 4 from 98 is 94. Either way the answer is 94.


You only take away one time.


since it is 100 base we multiply 94 with 100 so its 9400


Write 9400 below answer line.


98 - 02


x 96 - 04


-----------


94










For the last part of the answer, you “times,” or multiply, the numbers


next to actual multiplication number. What is 2 times 4? Two times 4 means two fours added


together. Two fours are 8. since the compliment as two digit add zero in front of 8 as 08. Write the 08 as the last part of the answer.


The answer is 9408.


98 - 02


x 96 - 04


------------ -


9408










Any clarification kindly revert back to me.






Practice: Try this out (Don't skip this since higher level need this practice)






a) 96 × 96 = e) 98 × 94 =
b) 97 × 95 = f) 97 × 94 =
c) 95 × 95 = g) 98 × 92 =
d) 98 × 95 = h) 97 × 93 =






More fun to follow.


Note: We can instead of asking how many more to make it 100, you can use the formula we learned in 2A. eg. 98 complement no. is "all by 9 and last by 10" the answer is 9-9 = 0 , 10-8 = 2, so the complement no. is 02 and for 96, 9-9 = 0 , 10-6 = 4 and 04 is the complement no.

From the art of brain

Dear Friends,


I hope I need to cover the complement number before I proceed further.


There are 10,100,1000, .... base numbers, for an example for 10 base 1's complement number is 9. that means the number added with its complement will give its base number.


so this is how it follow number complement
1 9
2 8
3 7
4 6
5 5
6 4
4 6
3 7
2 8
1 9


For small number it is easy, When we go bigger number it will become difficult. Let we try 100 base few before we see a standard formula
number complement
10 90
20 80
.... so the number added with its complement number will give its base. So for the above number the base is 100. So now we need to remember a formula when we try a complement of big number.


Formulat: All from 9 and last from 10.


So we always use the number from left to right.
for example a complement of 1234 is all from 9 is subtract all number from 9 and the last digit(unit digit) from 10.
Note. The last digit should not be 0, if 0 then its earlier digit will be subtracted from 10.


So take 1234
so 9 - 1 = 8
9 - 2 = 7
9 - 3 = 6
10 - 4(last digit) = 6


so the complement number for 1234 is 8766


the number 5500 complement is
9 - 5 = 4
10 - 5 = 5 (the 5 in hundred position should be subtracted by 10 since remaining small digits are 0's.)


So the complement of 5500 is 4500


try the following
568945
365400
100000
265847
984565457
358479
8555457

Dear Friends,

THE SPEED MATHEMATICS METHOD

I am now going to show you the speed mathematics way of working with single digit near to 10 number multiplication in this session

The problem now looks like this:

    8

  x 6

We now look at each number and ask, how many more do we need to make 10?

We start with the 8. If we have 8, how many more do we need to make 10?

The answer is 2. Eight plus 2 equals 10. We write 2 next to the 8. Our equation now looks like this:

    8 - 2

 x 6

We now go to the 6. How many more to make 10? The answer is 4.

We write 4 next to the 6.

This is how the problem looks now:

    8 - 2

 x 6 - 4

We now take away, or subtract, crossways or diagonally. We either

take 2 from 6 or 4 from 8. It doesn’t matter which way we subtract—

the answer will be the same, so choose the calculation that looks

easier. Two from 6 is 4, or 4 from 8 is 4. Either way the answer is 4.

You only take away one time. Write 4 below answer line.

    8 - 2

 x 6 - 4

-----------

    4

For the last part of the answer, you “times,” or multiply, the numbers

next to actual multiplication number. What is 2 times 4? Two times 4 means two fours added

together. Two fours are 8. Write the 8 as the last part of the answer.

The answer is 48.

    8 - 2

  x 6 - 4

------------ -

    48

Note: I have trouble in explaining this more graphically. Moderation - Do you allow file attachment for easy printing? so I can upload the sheet scanned after writing on paper will give better understanding. Also I am plaining to handle few session if more parents are interested.

Any clarification kindly revert back to me.

Practice: Try this out (Don't skip this since higher level need this practice)

1) 9 x 9 = ?

2) 8 x 8 = ?

3) 7 x 7 = ?

4) 7 x 9 = ?

5) 8 x 9 = ?

6) 9 x 6 = ?

7) 5 x 9 = ?

8) 8 x 7 = ?

More fun to follow.

Tips to Parents - 1

Homework

Helping Your Child Study

* Establish a Routine. Setting a regular time and sticking to it helps
children complete their homework assignments.
* Set the Mood. Ensure the room your child studies in is quiet, has plenty
of light, and has school supplies close at hand. Remove distractions by turning
off the television and discouraging social phone calls during homework time.
* Show an Interest. Ask your child about school activities and talk about
what was discussed in school that day. Take your child to the library to check
out materials for homework, and make time to read with your child as often as
you can.

Monitoring Homework Assignments

* Be Informed. Find out about the school's policy on homework at the
beginning of the school year. Ask your child's teachers about the kind of
assignments that will be given and what kind of time frame the children have to
complete them.
* Be Involved. Ask the teacher how you can help with homework. Be available
to answer your child's questions, look over completed assignments, and encourage
your child to share returned assignments so you can read the teacher's comments.

Providing Guidance to Homework Assignments

* Learn How Your Child Learns. Understand your child's learning style and
develop routines that best support how he or she learns best.
* Encourage Good Study Habits. Help your child get organized. Ensure your
child has scheduled enough time to complete assignments.
* Talk. Discuss homework with your child. Talking about an assignment can
help your child think it through and break it down into small, workable parts.
* Provide Encouragement. Find ways to support your child's efforts in
completing assignments.

Reading with Your Child

* Make Reading a Priority. Let your child know how important it is to read
regularly. Establish a regular time and place for reading.
* Read to Your Child. Make time to read to your child on a regular basis. It
is a great way to help develop a love of learning.
* Ask Your Child to Read to You. Have your child read aloud to you.
* Keep Reading Material Close By. Make sure children's books and magazines
are easily accessible. Keep a basket of books in the family room, kitchen, or
your child's bedroom to encourage him or her to read more often.
* Visit the Library. Make visits to the library a regular activity and let
your children select their own books.
* Be a Reading Role Model. Read a lot. Let your child see you read and hear
you talk about your books.

Avoiding Conflict

* Listen. Encourage your child to talk about school, social events, other
kids in class, the walk or ride to and from school so you can identify any
issues he or she may be having.
* Look. Watch for symptoms that your child may be a bullying victim. Be
aware of signs such as withdrawal, a drop in grades, physical signs, or needing
extra money or supplies.
* Work with Others. Tell the school immediately if you think your child is
being bullied. Work with other parents to ensure that the children in your
neighborhood are supervised closely on their way to and from school. Talk to the
teacher or school's guidance counsellor for some professional advice.

Helping Your Child Prepare for High School

* Educate Yourself. Find out the requirements, choices, and processes
involved in planning your teen's senior high school program with your child's
teacher. Your teen will need your assistance and advice.
* Plan Carefully. Some Grade 10 courses are prerequisites for more advanced
high school courses. As well, certain programs enable students to meet entry
requirements for post-secondary programs or acquire the knowledge and skills to
enter directly into a career. Keep future goals in mind when planning grade 10
programs.
* Prepare for Post-Secondary. If your teen intends to enter a post-secondary
institution after high school, check the calendars of these institutions for
admission requirements to plan his or her senior high school program
accordingly.
