What Is Meant By Vedic Maths?

The term ‘Vedic’ came from the Sanskrit word ‘Veda’, which means ‘Knowledge’. And, Vedic Maths is a super collection of sutras to solve math problems in a faster & easy way.

VEDIC MATHS

1. Squaring Of A Number Whose Unit Digit Is 5

With this Vedic Math trick, you can quickly find the square of a two-digit number ending with 5.
CBSE or ICSE-whatever syllabus you follow, you will definitely come across such sums.

For example Find (55) ² =?

Step 1. 55 x 55 = . . 25 (end terms)
Step 2. 5x (5+1) = 30

So our answer will be 3025.

Well, if you have understood the process try to find the square of 75 & 95.

2. Multiplication Of Any 2-digit Numbers (11 – 19)

Till Math is there, you need to do such calculations each & every day, whether you are from the CBSE board or ICSE Board. This Vedic Trick is especially for getting the result when you multiply any two-digit number from 11 to 19.

Once you practice this Vedic Trick a number of times, you might never need a calculator to get the result as you will calculate faster than the machine.

There are 4 steps to get the result:

Step 1. Add the unit digit of the smaller number to the larger number.
Step 2. Next, multiply the result by 10.
Step 3. Now, multiply the unit digits of both the 2-digit numbers.
Step 4. Then add both the numbers.

EXAMPLE

For example: Let’s take two numbers 13 & 15.
Step 1. 15 + 3 =18.
Step 2. 18*10 = 180.
Step 3. 3*5 = 15
Step 4. Add the two numbers, 180+15 and the answer is 195.

Hope you have understood this Vedic Math Trick. It might seem a bit complex at first, but trust me once you master it, your calculation speed will increase by at least 80%. And, that is something every student needs to score well in Math!

Using this Vedic Trick, solve these sums and share your result: 15*18, 11*13, 19*19

3. Convert kilograms to pounds quickly

If you want to convert kilograms to pounds, you can do it in your head in few seconds.

Let take an example: Convert 112 Kg to pound.
Step 1. Multiply Kg value by 2
112X2= 224
Step 2. Divide the previous one by 10
224/10=22.4
Step 3. Add both the number
224+ 22.4= 246.4 pounds.

4. Find The Square Value

Finding the square of a number in using the Vedic Maths Trick is easy. Just follow the below steps:

Step 1. Choose a base closer to the original number.
Step 2. Find the difference of the number from the base.
Step 3. Add the difference with the original number.
Step 4. Multiply the result with the base.
Step 5. Add the product of the square of the difference with the result of the above point.

EXAMPLE

(99) ² =?

Step 1. Choose 100 as base
Step 2. Difference: 99-100 = -1
Step 3. Add the number with the difference that you got in Step 2 = 99 + (-1) = 98
Step 4. Multiplying result with base = 98*100 = 9800
Step 5. Now, add result with the square of the difference= 9800 + (-1)² = 9801
So our answer is : (99) ² = 9801

For your practice: (98)², (97)², (102)², (101)².

BENEFITS OF VEDIC MATHS

Regular mathematical methods are sometimes complex and time-consuming. But if use Vedic Mathematic’s Procedure and Techniques, some of the calculations such assets of given data,  can be done very fast. Some of the more useful advantages of this Mathematics are;

  • It's more than 1700% times faster than General Math. Thus, it could be considered as the World’s Fastest.
    It helps a child to lose the Math fear from his mind. Usually, students are scared of doing mathematical calculations because of the logic they have to use to solve them. Thus, these ancient Maths will help to solve the problems in the easiest way.
    It helps to increase the thinking capability and intelligence, along with a sharpening of the mind.
  • Helps in increasing the speed and giving accurate answers.
  • Students feel very confident about this subject, after improving their memory power.
  • Students get interested more in numbers, they just have to apply their skills and have knowledge of tables to learn this.
  • These maths calculations are of great use while preparing for competitive exams
