Mastering Numbers is a comprehensive coverage of techniques that
enable a person of any age to solve numeracy problems without the
use of a calculator. It addresses simplified strategies that enable
a person to solve numeracy calculations for all four operations
significantly faster than traditional methods. In exploring
techniques to solve the single digit multiplication, Mastering
Numbers does not rely on a ROTE learning approach but explains the
basic patterns that underlie any single digit multiplication. Using
the Vedic pattern of multiplication and the system of mental
calculation devised by Professor Jakow Trachtenberg, it
demonstrates with a step by step process the numerous shortcuts to
solve 2 digit by 2 digit multiplications very very quickly.
Mastering numbers also explores the 3 digit by 3 digit
multiplications that with practice can be solved faster than using
a calculator. Dividing any number by 2 digit or 3 digits uses the
reverse process of Trachtenberg's multiplication system, where you
only divide a number by the first digit of the divisor. Because a
book by its very nature is a static learning device, there are both
PowerPoints that explain each example in the book and
self-correcting worksheets to help master the skills and concepts.
These are available by contacting the author at the following
website modmaths.com.au Any one (even those who are young at heart)
working through the skills of this book, will hopefully become more
confident in their approach to Maths. By learning the patterns and
techniques, that enable you to solve problems quickly, you may
overcome any fear of Maths, enjoy the challenge of solving Maths
problems and maybe discover a sense of empowerment that comes with
"playing" with numbers.
