There is a nines trick Ex. 9 x 8 You put your hands in front of you and would put the eighth finger down. The eight finger is like an imaginary line. The fingers that are up on the left side are the tens. And the fingers up on the right are the ones. Then when you add them together they make the anwser of 72. And it works for any number. I hope i helped

There is a nine trick
First, you hold up all of your fingers
So if you're doing 6x9, you would hold up your 10 fingers, and count to six, while each number, hold a finger down. When you're done, you should have the thumb of your right hand down. So since your left hand has 5 fingers down, that's 50. Next, you skip your thumb and count 4. That's 54
6x9 is 54
