Shortcut Method Example

10% of any number Move decimal one place left 10% of 348 = 34.8

5% of any number Half of 10% 5% of 348 = 17.4

15% of any number 10% + 5% 15% of 200 = 20+10 = 30

20% of any number Divide by 5 20% of 350 = 70

25% of any number Divide by 4 25% of 480 = 120

33.33% of number Divide by 3 33.33% of 270 = 90

50% of any number Divide by 2 50% of 786 = 393

75% of any number 3/4 → multiply by 3, div 4 75% of 400 = 300

1% of any number Move decimal two places left 1% of 5600 = 56

X% of Y = Y% of X Commutative trick 8% of 50 = 50% of 8 = 4

■ Vedic Math Quick Tricks

Trick How to Apply

Multiply by 11 47 × 11 → 4_(4+7)_7 = 517 63 × 11 → 6_(6+3)_3 = 693

Square ending in 5 65² → 6×7=42, add 25 → 4225 85² → 8×9=72, add 25 → 7225

Multiply near 100 97×96 → (97-4)×100 + 4×3 = 9312 98×97 → (98-3)×100 + 3×2 = 9506

Multiply near 50 48×46 → (50-2)(50-4) = 50×44+2×4=2208 Use base 50 for quick answers

35% of 480 → 30%+5% = 144+24 = 168 125% of 64 → 64 + 25% of 64 =

Find % mentally 64+16=80

Division shortcut Divide by 5 → multiply by 2, divide by 10 840÷5 → 840×2=1680÷10=168
