Multiply Faster Using Patterns

Multiplying large numbers can be simple if you notice patterns.

For example, to multiply 11 × 23, you can use this trick:

Step 1: Separate digits of 23 → 2 _ 3  
Step 2: Add them (2 + 3 = 5)  
Step 3: Put 5 in the middle → 253  
✅ 11 × 23 = 253

Try this trick with 11 × 47, 11 × 89, etc. It works for all two-digit numbers!
