Mathematical Solutions: Multiplying Big Numbers


If you are the type of person who has little interest in numbers and would rather draw doodles in your test papers than solve, I know what your feeling. I wish my passion for puzzles equates my skills in numbers, but my brain tends to fly to a completely different world when I start seeing digits.

Big numbers are the scariest, aren't they? I dread the days when the teachers would hand out exam papers and strictly implement the rule: NO CALCULATORS. How am I supposed to calculate these three-digit numbers in half an hour? All twenty sets of them?!

Today, I found out what I should have found out when I was still in school. If you're still studying and struggling in Math, you're lucky to have stumbled upon this article.

This day is the day when you find magic in Mathematics, all thanks to the creative minds of Japanese people. All you need to do to be amazed is click the play button below.


Nuff said. This is truly an art of Mathematics. I'm not taking Math exams anymore, but I could still use this  when I'm kidnapped by mathematical terrorists and I end up becoming one of them because I am capable of multiplying BIG numbers.
