2625 Rule of 2 digit #'s ending in 5 Round the smaller number down and the larger up to the nearest multiple of ten. In this case: 35-5=30=X 75+5=80=Y The algorithm reads as follows: (X*Y)+50(t1-t2)+25 Where t1 is the tens unit of the original larger number (75) and t2 is the tens unit of the original smaller number (35). 30*80+50(7-3)+25=2625

Place 8 to the result and carry the 1. result: 856 Add the carried 1 to the highest valued digit in the multiplier, 8 + 1 = 9, and copy to the result to finish.

759 x 11

A step-by-step example of 759 × 11: The ones digit of the multiplier, 9, is copied to the temporary result.: 9 Add 5 + 9 = 14 so 4 is placed on the left side of the result and carry the 1. result: 49 Similarly add 7 + 5 = 12, then add the carried 1 to get 13. Place 3 to the result and carry the 1. result: 349 Add the carried 1 to the highest valued digit in the multiplier, 7 + 1 = 8, and copy to the result to finish. Final product of 759 × 11: 8349

Find 10% then multiply by 9

8/256

Step 1: Begin by finding an acceptable range for how many times 8 goes into 256. Because 8 x 10 = 80 and 8 x 100 = 800, we know 8 will go into 256 between 10 and 100 times. So we can safely assume our answer will be a two-digit number. Step 2: Determine what multiple of 10 multiplied with 8 gets you closest to 256. Because 8 x 30 = 240, 8 goes into 256 30-something times. Step 3: Count how many eights are between 240 to 256. Two more eights will do the trick. So our final answer is 256 ÷ 8 = 32.
