Multiplication of three-digit numbers
In Vedic Maths, Multiplication of three digit numbers can be done by Nikhilam Sutra (Base Method)
Case 1: - Both Numbers are greater than Base (100)
| Number | Base | Difference |
|---|---|---|
| 105 (X1) | 100 (Y) | + 5 (Z1) |
| 108 (X2) | 100 (Y) | + 8 (Z2) |
| Part A | Part B |
|---|---|
| 105 + 8 | 5 x 8 |
| 113 | 40 |
| Part A | Part B |
|---|---|
| 113 | 40 |
Another Example of Three Digit Numbers greater than Base (100)
107 x 112
Step 1 –
| Number | Base | Difference |
|---|---|---|
| 107 (X1) | 100 (Y) | + 7 (Z1) |
| 112 (X2) | 100 (Y) | + 12 (Z2) |
Y= nearest power of 10 i.e 10, 100, 1000, 10000.
Thus nearest power of 10 to the number 107 and 112 is 100.
Z 1 = X 1 – Y, Z 2 = X 2 - Y
Step 2 -
| Part A | Part B |
|---|---|
| 107 + 12 | 7 x 12 |
| 119 | 84 |
Part A = (X1 + Z 2)
Part B = Z1 x Z2
Step 3 -
| Part A | Part B |
|---|---|
| 119 | 84 |
Ans :- 11984
Rule 1:- No. of zeros in base is equal to no. of digits in part B.
Therefore here no. of zeros in base is equal to no. of digits in part B
