Tough Multiplication
When multiplying large numbers, if one of the numbers is even, divide the first number in half, and then double the second number. This method will solve the problem quickly.
For example, 20 x 120
Step 1: Divide the 20 by 2, which equals 10
Step 2: Double 120, which equals 240
Step 2: Then multiply your two answers together
10 x 240 = 2400
The answer to 20 x 120 is 2,400
