No. They both equal different numbers. They are clos, but no. 14×50 can not help you find 14×49.

The math behind 14*50 is easier than the math behind 14*49.  However, if you do 14*50 and then subtract 14, it is the same thing as 14*49.  This is an easier alternative, but both methods are still relatively simple.
