How the Japanese Do Multiplication.

The lines and numbers above may not make any sense at first, but according to William C. at Themetapicture.com: "The lines over the circles are color coded. notice the single red line and 3 blue lines representing "13" group together while the single green and 2 black lines take their own group. [Simply] draw your first group of lines in one direction then your second group of lines going over the first, count the groups of intersections and there's your answer."

...How I do multiplication...

Gold_Certificate · January 6

It's much easier to just multiply 12 by 13.

Fuck outta here with drawing color coded lines and shit.

*Scratches head* Um

BlackThor356 · January 6

well theres a reason we are way behind the Japs in every academic statistical category

That's not really learning doing math.

Stopitfive · January 6

Y'all r funny...

Shizlansky · January 6

To do*

Gold_Certificate · January 6

Imagine trying to do that shit on a test.

Using scratch paper to try to draw lines at different shades because you don't know how to multiply.

Shit'd be disgraceful.

Kettle corn is disgusting, what the fuck.

Japan is like third in math skills, we r like 25... Perhaps we should look at their methods with a little more respect...

Gold_Certificate · January 6

Fuck that method and fuck kettle corn too.

It doesn't even look like a shortcut.

I'm still trying to figure it out.

TB.Boy · January 6

lechic · January 6

My Japanese friend never did that shit

tha bause · January 6

What if they have to multiply triple digits or more? You'll run out of colors and codes eventually

Empress_ · January 6

It's not difficult, looks easy, just unnecessarily extra as I don't regularly carry a pencil box of crayons in my pocketbook.

Stopitfive · January 6

so y'all just gonna ignore the fact that its a method for kids to learn the fundamentals?
its not for adults (apparently)... I am disappoint...

jono · January 6

If I learned how to do it then it would make more sense. Its an interesting way to learn.

we're behind estonia and mexico too, how about we temper our expectations and try to pass them first before we start doing stuff the japanese are doing lol

adopting the metric system like some sane human beings would be a good start lol

i was taught this method which seems much easier
