Bank Exam Multiplication Master – Page 3 (Premium Guide)

Shortcut Techniques • Fast Calculation • Exam Strategy



Concept

Multiplication speed is crucial for clearing bank exams. Instead of direct calculation, use shortcut techniques.


Core Shortcut Formulas

125 × n = (n ÷ 8) × 1000

25 × n = (n ÷ 4) × 100

99 × n = 100n − n

999 × n = 1000n − n

101 × n = 100n + n


Practice Questions

Q1. 125 × 32

= (32 ÷ 8) × 1000 = 4 × 1000 = 4000


Q2. 25 × 48

= (48 ÷ 4) × 100 = 12 × 100 = 1200


Q3. 99 × 84

= 8400 − 84 = 8316


Q4. 999 × 72

= 72000 − 72 = 71928


Q5. 101 × 56

= 5600 + 56 = 5656


Q6. 125 × 64

= (64 ÷ 8) × 1000 = 8 × 1000 = 8000


Q7. 98 × 75

= (100 × 75) − (2 × 75)

= 7500 − 150 = 7350


Q8. 97 × 48

= (100 × 48) − (3 × 48)

= 4800 − 144 = 4656


Q9. 250 × 48

= 25 × 48 × 10

= 1200 × 10 = 12000


Q10. 75 × 96

= (100 − 4) × 75

= 7500 − 300 = 7200


Advanced Techniques

Q11. 48 × 48

= (50 − 2)²

= 2500 − 200 + 4 = 2304


Q12. 49 × 51

= (50 − 1)(50 + 1)

= 2500 − 1 = 2499


Q13. 98 × 102

= (100 − 2)(100 + 2)

= 10000 − 4 = 9996


Q14. 999 × 48

= 48000 − 48 = 47952


Q15. 1005 × 32

= 32000 + 160 = 32160
