Before you start the 9's, you want to be familiar with this technique.
With these, you can simply use this technique (As you read this, look at the diagram image below).
So for 9 x 2, you ask yourself:
A) What number is not 9? It's 2. So we focus on 2.
B) Then we always do 10 minus the number of focus. So we simply do 10 - 2. This gives us 8.
C) Now we know our answer has a 8 on the end.
D) With enough practice, we know the answer is 18.
You'll notice other patterns for 9's but the technique above is the main focus and is enough to help you learn the 9's Keeping it simple.
We want to eventually learn these where we don't have to use this technique, and we just know that 9 x 2 = 18 by heart. This takes a lot of practice with our quiz, just taking it over and over again.
Here's a video showing how it works.
