5. Suppose we have to
multiply 7 X 8 :
We should take 10
as the base of our
calculation because
it is the nearest
unity to the numbers
to be multiplied.
8. Suppose we have to
multiply 97 X 98 :
We should take 100
as the base of our
calculation because
it is the nearest
unity to the numbers
to be multiplied.
11. Suppose we have to
multiply 997 X 998 :
We should take
1000 as the base of
our calculation
because it is the
nearest unity to the
numbers to be
multiplied.
14. Suppose we have to
multiply 12 X 14 :
We should take 10
as the base of our
calculation because
it is the nearest
unity to the numbers
to be multiplied.
25. Suppose we have to
divide 123 by 88 :
123 will be divided into
2 parts by a diagonal
stroke. Now leaving 2
digits after the diagonal
stroke since there are
2 digits in the divisor.
27. Benefits of Vedic Mathematics
•It encourages students to be more creative at problem solving
by using more than one method for a particular situation.
•Focus is on harvesting of the potentials of the brain, putting it to
good use rather than a calculator.
•Calculations can often be carried out from right to left or from
left to right.
•Does not insist on the contemporary analytical approach, hence
makes students more intuitive, attentive towards the once
“dreadful chore.”
•As the focus is more on mental calculation, mental abilities
improve to a fairly large extent.
•The elements of coherence and unification of the Vedic system
appeal makes mathematics more easy, fun, enjoyable and
appealing.
•Instead of learning by repetition, Vedic Mathematics involves
logic and understanding the fundamental concepts.
•Improves concept clarity.
