Vedic Maths
Vedic maths is a system of mathematics that was discovered by an Indian
mathematician, Jagadguru Shri Bharathi Krishna Tirthaji during A.D. 1911 and 1918.
He printed his findings in a Vedic Mathematics book – Tirthaji Maharaj. Vedic
mathematics is also called mental mathematics in the mathematical world. We can say
that the brain’s capacity and its speed of calculations increases fivefold with the
practice of Vedic maths.

Vedic Maths Meaning

Vedic Maths or Vedic Mathematics is a collection of Methods or Sutras to solve
numerical computations quickly and faster. It consists of 16 Sutras called Formulae
and 13 sub-sutras called Sub Formulae, which can be applied to the solving of
problems in arithmetic, algebra, geometry, calculus, conics, etc. All the sutras
and sub sutras of Vedic maths help to perform mathematical operations quickly and
accurately.

Vedic Maths Benefits

The importance of Vedic Maths can be explained in various ways. The application of
Vedic maths in the simplification of numerical problems is many times faster than
the modern methods of calculations. Sometimes, this way of simplifying numerical
calculations does not require paper and pen also. Thus, learning Vedic maths saves
time and improves the interest in learning more applications of maths. Some of the
benefits of Vedic mathematics sutras are listed below:
Calculations become easy and short.

Simplifications can be done in less time.
Students undergo less mental stress.
Results obtained by sutra-based methods can be easily verified with normal
procedures.
The possibility of committing errors by students using these sutras is negligible
The use of sutras helps students to improve their knowledge and interest in the
subject of mathematics.
Vedic maths helps to solve hard problems using mental calculations.

Vedic Maths Tricks
Vedic maths has many tricks to perform different mathematical operations such as
addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, squares, square roots, etc. All
these tricks help to compute the numerical problems in very little time when
compared to the normal maths procedures. Vedic maths tricks reduce the time in
finishing the calculations and create interest in learning more such tricks. Let’s
have a look at some of the tricks along with examples for a better understanding
here.

Vedic Maths Addition Tricks

We have various tricks to perform the addition in Vedic maths. In this section, you
will learn how to add numbers using one of the sutras called Ekadhikena Purvena
with the help of an example.
Example:
Compute: 98765 + 63217 + 89522 + 60543
Or
By Sutra Ekadhikena Purvena, add 98765, 63217, 89522, and 60543.
Solution:
Steps for adding numbers using Ekadhiken Purvena Sutra:

Step 1: Write the given numbers in rows and columns by giving some space between
the digits.
Step 2: Column I (from the right side), add the first two digits, 5 + 7 = 12
Step 3: Mark Ekadhika dot(.) on 1, (digit which is next to 7 in column II)
Step 4: Now, start again adding with 2;
2 + 2 = 4
Again start with 4 such that 4 + 3 = 7
Step 5: Write 7 below at the answer’s place
Step 6: Add the remaining columns in the same way.
Thus, the final answer will be obtained as:
Vedic maths addition

Vedic Maths Subtraction Tricks
Subtraction can be performed using 4 or 5 different methods in Vedic mathematics,
and the best, as well as easiest way to subtract the numbers, is the Sutra
Ekadhiken Purvena and Param Mitra Unka (the best friend). Here, two digits are
called each other’s best friends if their sum is equal to 10. For example, 3 is the
best friend of 7 since 3 + 7 = 10.
Go through the example given below to understand the subtraction of numbers by

Sutra Ekadhiken Purvena.
Question:
Subtract 389 from 746.
Solution:
Steps for subtraction in Sutra Ekadhiken Purvena:
Step 1: Write the given numbers in rows and columns by giving some space between
the digits.
Step 2: Consider column I (from the right end), 9 is greater than 6 so we cannot
subtract it from 6.
1 is the best friend of 9 and add 1 to 6, i.e. 1 + 6 = 7. So write 7 in the answer

place and mark Ekadhika dot(.) on 8, which is in the same row of column II such
that it becomes 9 (as 8 + 1 = 9).
Here, dot(.) on the number represents one more than the previous number.
Step 3: Similarly, we need to subtract the remaining numbers. Thus, the answer will
be:
Vedic maths subtraction

Therefore, 746 – 789 = 357.
Vedic Maths Multiplication Tricks

Like addition and subtraction, multiplication can also be done using different
sutras in Vedic maths. In this section, you will learn two simple methods of
multiplying numbers along with examples.
Method 1:
In this method, we can multiply the numbers whose unit digits are added up to 10 or
powers of 10.
Let’s have a look at the solved example given below to understand the
multiplication of numbers.
Example:
Multiply 63 and 67.
Solution:
63 × 67
Sum of unit digits = 3 + 7 = 10
Digits in tens places = 6
So, we can write the multiplication as:
63 × 67 = 6 × (6 + 1)/3 × 7
= 6 × 7/3 × 7
= 42/21
= 4221
We can also verify the result using normal mathematical calculations.
This method of multiplication is referred to as the Sutra Ekadhiken Purvena. This

method can also be used to multiply two numbers whose last two digits are added up
to 100, the last three digits are added up to 1000. Also, in the case of mixed
fractions, the sum of proper fractions must be added up to 1 to apply this method
of multiplication.
Method 2:
If two numbers are to be multiplied and one of these numbers is having only 9’s
then we can apply this method.
Example:
Multiply 876 and 999.
Solution:
Given, two numbers are 876 and 999.
Now, subtract 1 from 876.
876 – 1 = 875
Subtract 875 from 999.

999 – 875 = 124
Thus,
876 × 999 = 876 – 1/999 – 875
= 875/124
= 875124
This method of multiplying numbers is Sutra Ekanyunena Purvena.
Similarly, there are many sutras in Vedic maths to perform the multiplication of
numbers.
