Re: IBPS PO Numerical Ability Tricks

Numerical Ability – Shortcut Tricks to find the Square of Numbers:

• Square of a number is the product obtained by multiplying a number by itself
2×2 = 4
11×11 = 121
• To find the square of two-digit numbers (10-99) we can consider the following steps
1) Let the 2-digit number be = AB
2) Now to find AB2
3) Unit digit of square = B2
4) Ten’s digit of square = 2×A×B (+ Carry if any from the previous step)
5) The rest of the digits of square = A2 (+ Carry if any from the previous step)

FOR EXAMPLE
672 = ?
AB2 = 672

STEP 1:
B2 = 72 = 4 9 Here “9” is the unit digit and “4” is carry
• 672 = _ _ _ 9


STEP 2:
[2×A×B] + Carry from previous step i.e., 4
2×A×B = 2×6×7 = 84
Add Carry ‘4’ with the above ‘84’ we get [84+4= 88] Therefore at the end of the 2nd Step
From Step 1, here “8” is the unit digit and “8” is carry
• 672 = _ _ 8 9


STEP 3:
A2 = 62 = 36
There is a carry of ‘8’ from the previous step
Therefore, [36+8] = 44
The final answer is 672 = 4 4 8 9
