Note for Parents & Teachers

This follows the NCERT Class 5 chapter "The Dairy Farm". To multiply 18 x 5, halve 18 and double 5 to get 9 x 10 = 90. To multiply 99 x 15, find 100 x 15 and take away 15. For 35 x 42, split 42 into 40 + 2 and add 1,400 + 70. Estimate first by rounding, for example 248 x 49 is about 250 x 50 = 12,500.
