Mathematicians have reportedly discovered a new way of multiplying two numbers together. The new technique is for really large numbers, and if it passes a peer-review, could be the fastest possible ...

After duplex numbers, let us learn multiplication by triplex numbers. As the name suggests, numbers like 111, 222, 333 are triplex numbers. The method is similar to that of multiplication by duplex ...

David Harvey receives funding from the Australian Research Council. Around 1956, the famous Soviet mathematician Andrey Kolmogorov conjectured that this is the best possible way to multiply two ...

Multiplying and dividing whole numbers by numbers greater than 0 and less than 1 can be broken into a whole number calculation followed by multiplying or dividing by a power of 10, for example 10, 100 ...

The Monthly publishes articles, as well as notes and other features, about mathematics and the profession. Its readers span a broad spectrum of mathematical interests, and include professional ...

The first two lines of the calculation use the same procedure as that of above. In the third line we are multiplying by \(300\) (three hundreds). As we are multiplying by hundreds both the tens and ...

A long-standing puzzle seems to constrain how addition and multiplication relate to each other. A graduate student has gone further than anyone else in establishing the connection. In 1983 the ...

Multiplying values is one of the most frequently performed functions in Excel, so it should be no surprise that there are several ways to do this. You can use whichever method is best suited to what ...
