Question

When I multiply 9x9 how would I go about counting by 9s?

Answer 1

If you're looking for a shortcut, I usually find the number 1 less than what you are multiplying 9 by, this case 8, and then add a number that gets to 9.

So 9x6 would be:

5+4=9

54

Explanation:

When multiplying by 9s the product's two numbers added together =9.

Sorry if this is confusing. Hope this helps though.
