Just: “Acknowledge yourself , the fact that you know how to square double digit numbers ending with 5 only means that you are an expert compared to someone who still needs paper and calculator”

Hi alwaysLovely,

I am happy with the powerpoint slides.
Btw does that method work for only number ending with 5, cause l tried it with other numbers but fail to get correct answers.

Thanks for the powerpoint slideshow. But then , I’ve not been able to get it. Did try it severally, and had problem comprehending. Help me out pls.

Hi Gracious, the strategy works when you square number ending with ‘5′ for example 65 * 65 = ? , 85 * 85 = ?
To do this, it’s extremly easy,
#1: the answer will end with ‘25′
#2: take the first digit (6) x (multipy by) (1 more than 6 =7)
aka 6 * 7 = 42
so the answer is 4225
