The 2nd though, I tried other large numbers. Didn't work
Re: 11 Useful Math Tips You Probably Never Learned In School!!! by Nobody: 7:07am On Aug 02, 2015
For multiplying figures with Zero, remove the zeros and multiply the figures then put back the zeros.

eg.
500x200
5x2=10 then add four zeros

100000.

It's only applicable to numbers between 90 and 100.

Nice one.

we were taught some of them in the olden days, like multiplying any number by 11 and the Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion.

Excellent.
You can also perform the same trick on decimals.
E.g
0.2 x 0.4 = 0.08
Remove d decimal points (2 x 4 = cool
Count d numbers of zeros in both decimals I.e 0.2 n 0.4 has 2 zeros
Add the 2 zeros to ur answer from d left hand side. I.e 0.08
