Example 1
Calculate 24* 99
Solution
1. Decrement one from the number. So here 24-1 = 23
2. Decrement each digit of the number obtained from 9. Here we got 23. Now 9-2 = 7 and
9-3=6. So we have 76
3. Just write these numbers together. That is we have 23 and 76. Hence answer is 2376
Example 2
calculate 2358 * 9999
solution
2. Decrement each digit of the number obtained from 9. Here we got 2357. Now 9-2 = 7 ,
9-3=6 , 9-5=4 and 9-7=2. So we have 7642
3. Just write these numbers together. That is we have 2357 and 7642. Hence answer is
23577642
Example 3
calculate 758 * 99999
solution
1. Since the number of digits in 99999 is 5, we need to write 758 as 00758 in order to
treat it as a 5 digit number
2. Decrement each digit of the number obtained from 9. Here we got 00757. Now 9-0=9,
9-0=9, 9-7=2, 9-5=4, 9-7=2. So we have 99242
3. Just write these numbers together. That is we have 00757 and 99242. Hence answer is
0075799242 or 75799242

When number of 9s are less than number of digit in other number The method is
slightly different
here 12158*999 .It has 3 9's and other number has 5 digit
so divide the other number in to two group from right .Where right most group contain
as much digit as number of 9s
that is 12158 to 2 group 12 and 158(because 3 9's)
then add 1 to the left group 12+1=13
now subtract this number from original number
12158-13=12145
now take right most group 158 subtract it form 999+1
1000-158=842
so the result is combine this group 12145842
example 2
45612*999
45 and 612
45+1=46
45612-46=45566
->1
1000-612=388
->2
combine 1 and 2 45566388

example 3
4214*999
4 and 214
4214-5=4209
1000-214=786
so answer is 4209786

I don't think this method can be used for problems like 12158 * 999 where number of
digits > number of 9s
One method for such cases is 12158 * 999 = 12158(1000-1) = 12158000 - 12158 =
12145842

23458*999
23458(1000-1)
23458*1000 - 23458*1
23458000-23458
=23434542
786*99= 786(100-1)
=786*100 - 786*1
=78600-786
=77814
