Somebody I know told me he did the calculation in his head like that
(14/2) x (5x2)
=7 x 10
=70
I thought that was brilliant. Mechanically I can do it in my head (yes, I actually can). Or at most I would think OKAY, 14 x 5 = 10 x 5 + 4 x 5 = 70. But I would never have thought about the first method.

the damage is done ages ago. XDD
ReplyDeletei've already given up on myself.
I got the impression that you did some Econometrics at school. So your math can't be too bad.
