Step2: Now we start Adding to the Neighbor. First we Add 4 to 0.

1234 0

(4+0 =4)

Gives us:-

Step3: Add 3 to 4 gives us 7.

1234 0

(4+0 =4) (3+4=7)

Gives us:-

74

Step4: Add 2 to 3 gives us 5.

1234 0

(4+0 =4) (3+4=7) (2+3=5)

Gives us:-

574

Step5: Add 1 to 2 gives us 3.

1234 0

(4+0 =4) (3+4=7) (2+3=5) (1+2=3)

Gives us:-

3574

Step6: Finally Add 0 to 1 gives us 1.

1234 0

(4+0 =4) (3+4=7) (2+3=5) (1+2=3) (0+1=1)

Gives us our Answer:- 1 3 5 7 4

Simple Isn't it? Now try 12345 x 11 on your own.

Step2: Now we start Adding to the Neighbor. First we Add 7 to 0.

7 7 7

(7+0=7)

Gives us:-

Step3: Add 7 to 7 gives us 14. We write 4 and take 1 as carry to the next step.

7 7 7

(7+0=7) (7+7=14)

Gives us:-

47

Step4: Add 7 to 7 gives us 14. We add 1 from carryover gives us 15.We write 5 and again take 1 as carryover to the next step.

7 7 7

(7+0=7) (7+7=14) (7+7=14+1=15)

Gives us:-

15

Step5: Finally we add 0 to 7 and then add 1 of the carry over to give us 8.

7 7 7

(7+0=7) (7+7=14) (7+7=14+1=15) (0+7=7+1=8)

Gives us our final answer:- 8 5 4 7

Simple Isn't it? Now try any number multiplied with 11.

Now lets take for example 1234 x 12

Multiplying numbers with12

www.vedicmathsindia.org

The method is called Doubling and then Adding to the Neighbor We note that we double since the number 12 has a 2. Had the multiplier been 13 we would have tripled and then added to the neighbor.

Step1: We put two strokes beside 1234 and place two zeros as before.

1234 0

Multiplying numbers with12

www.vedicmathsindia.org

Step2: Now we start Doubling and Adding to the Neighbor. First we double 4, gives us 8.We then add 8 to zero.

1234 0

(4x2=8+0 = 8)

Gives us:-

Multiplying numbers with12

www.vedicmathsindia.org

Step3: We now double 3 to get 6. Add the neighbor 4 to get 10. We write 0 and carry 1.

1234 0

(4x2=8+0 = 8) (3x2 =6+4=10)

Gives us:-

08

Multiplying numbers with12

www.vedicmathsindia.org

Step4: We now double 2 to get 4.Add 1 of carry gives us 5. Add neighbor 3 gives us 8.

1234 0

(4x2=8+0 = 8) (3x2 =6+4=10) (2x2 =4+1=5+3=8)

Gives us:-

808

Multiplying numbers with12

www.vedicmathsindia.org

Step5: Double 1 to get 2. Add neighbor 2, gives 4.

(4x2=8+0 = 8) (3x2 =6+4=10) (2x2 =4+1=5+3=8) (1x2 =2+2=4)

1234 0

Gives us:-

4808

Multiplying numbers with12

www.vedicmathsindia.org

Step6: Finally Double 0 to gives us 0. Add neighbor 1 , gives us 1.

1234 0

(4x2=8+0 = 8) (3x2 =6+4=10) (2x2 =4+1=5+3=8) (1x2 =2+2=4) (0x2 =0+1=1)

Gives us our Final Answer:- 14808

Simple Isn't it? Now try 12345 x 12 on your own.

Thumb rule for 13-19

For 13 its three times add to the neighbor For 14 its 4 times add to the neighbor For 15 its 5 times add to the neighbor and so on. For 18, its 8 times add to the neighbor And finally for 19 its 9 times add to the neighbor.
