What is Vedic mathematics?
Vedic Mathematics is the surname given to a supposedly ancient
system of calculation which was "rediscovered" from the Vedas
between 1911 and 1918 by Sri Bharati Krishna Tirthaji Maharaj
(1884-1960). According to Tirthaji, all of Vedic mathematics is
based on sixteen Sutras, or word-formulae.

Vedic mathematics – The Historical Background
Welcome to the wonderful world of "Vedic" mathematics, a science
that its founder claims was lost due to the advent of modern
mathematics. Vedic mathematics is said by its founder to be a gift
given to this world by the ancient sages of India, though there is no
historical evidence whatsoever for this claim. It is a system for
limited arithmetic and polynomial calculation which is simpler and
more enjoyable than the equivalent algorithms of modern

on sixteen Sutras, or word-formulae. For example, "Vertically and
Crosswise" is one of these Sutras. These formulae are intended to
describe the way the mind naturally works, and are therefore
supposed to be a great help in directing the student to the
appropriate method of solution.

Vedic mathematics – The Historical Background
Perhaps the most striking feature of the Tirthaji system is
its coherence. The whole system is interrelated and
unified: the general multiplication method, for example,
is easily reversed to allow one-line divisions, and the
simple squaring method can be reversed to give one-line
square roots. And, these are all easily understood. This
unifying quality is very satisfying, it makes arithmetic easy
and enjoyable, and it encourages innovation.

Exercise
1) 89 * 56 = ___________________________
2) 49*89 = ____________________________
3) 88*92 = ____________________________
4) 59*68 = ____________________________
30.
SOLUTION
1) 89*56
89 89-100 = -11
56 56-100 = -44
(89+56)-100 -11* -44 = 484
45 484
4 5+4 = 9 84

SOLUTION
2) 49*89
49 49-100 = -51
89 89-100 = -11
(49+89)-100 -51* -11 = 561
38 561
3 8+5 = 13 61

SOLUTION
3) 88*92
88 88-100 = -12
92 92-100 = -8
(88+92)-100 -12* -8 = 96
80 96
8096
33.
SOLUTION
4) 59*68
59 59-100 = -41
68 68-100 = -32
(59+68)-100 -41* -32 = 1312
