Example: 7 × 8
Assume :
Little finger represent 6
Ring finger represent 7
Middle finger represent 8
Index finger represent 9
1. To multiply 7 and 8 bend fingers 6 and 7 of our left hand and bend fingers 6, 7 and 8 of our right hand.
2. Hence, we have bent 5 fingers. The value of each bent fingers is 10.
3. Thus, the total value of bent fingers is 50.
4. Next multiply the other 3 fingers on the left with the 2 fingers in the right (3 × 2 = 6).
5. Therefore, the total is
50 + 6 = 56
Try this !!!
a) 6 × 8
b) 6 × 9
c) 7 × 6
