Nah, maybe some of them are required to memorize the table.For e.g., in Singapore, we are supposed to memorize up to 12 time table.Didn't the West have that?
Quite simple for Chinese, since 9*9=81,8*9=72 are required to memorize in Chinese elementary school so this question = 81 * 9, and further simplified as 80*9 +9 = 729

Imagine being constantly told to help someone. It gets tedious to the point where you no longer are spending time on helping yourself but helping others. Its not a problem when its occasional. Its a problem when it happens alot in a short span of time. Thats just my opinion on things.
Eh I still find it impressive. Let’s not undermine the effort these people have put into studying lol. Lots of people can’t do Math or don’t think about it anymore, so some will find it pretty amazing these guys know square roots from the top of their head.
Pooja Draws we had to memorize the squares through 1 to 25 in elementary school too, but most of them will be forgotten after you graduate from high school as most people no longer need to use them... so say that when you are 33
@@completeuncertainty2561 In India we r taught the same too. But it wud be better if instead of making us memorize they taught us faster techniques to calculate any square. Sadly we hv to learn that ourselves from parents or some age old aryabhatta book
@Cool Dude Nope wrong! Square root of 144 is 12 *OR* -12 not 'and' So any of the 2 answers is correct. Next time don't try to teach asians (India in this case) the math they invented
In scale to 1 - 10 how good do you think you are at math? Chines people: "umm 4?" Answers all the questions correctly. Chinese people: "I think elementary school students can answer these faster". Mean while in American elementary school: Still learning plus and minus.
At least table upto 10 is enough.. For example cube of nine is 9×9×9 = 81×9 =729 sqrt(256) = either 14 or 16 cause for only square of unit digit 4 and 6 only produce 6 in unit digit.
It's just the way their educational system work. Learning everything by heart, learning tricks to calculate mentally faster. It can be considered good and it can be considered bad.
Asians are really good at math... here in India also students learn basic math in class/grade 1 at the age of 5.... Like China square roots also introduce in middle school at the age of 10 .
You might be surprised to know that it's the same in the US. Middle school students get the basics of advanced math. However, the focus is more on understanding the concepts than memorization. Memorization is good for test taking because you can calculate faster. But for complex problems, you have to understand the process or you will not get the right answer.
@@raggmopp857 absolutely true ,here in india till 10th grade everybody is like "maths is super easy " and as soon as they choose maths subject for further studies or for competitive exams ,students opinion change as advanced maths rely highly on concept rather than memorising and some even regret taking maths . It's true in asian society parents doesn't care what their kids learned in school ,they just want more and more no o A's on report card
@@raggmopp857 It's taught the same way here in the UK. Just memorising the correct answers would be considered a fail here in Cambridge when we were kids, etc. It's so frustrating, because i am good at memorising stuff, but not explaining how i got to the answer step by step because i've always lacked patience, so i was put in math classes for people with learning difficulties, even though i aced every test,because i couldn't explain it, they always accused me of cheating. Now i know eight languages thanks to my memory, but how i was treated in and regarding math really put a sour taste in my mouth re the subject, which sucks.
@Miya sumi Chinese are made to do a lot of cramming even in Maths while Indians are trained to mentally calculate even if it is a small calculation. It is not rote.
I am in 10th standard and studying in *India* some people might find those square root hard but for a 7th Student it also they are pretty easy here probably because of our education system or the mindset of Indian society toward maths. And I observed it is pretty same in *China* also
I am 12 and I am Indian and I was able to do all of them very fast 😁 The first one took me 3 seconds but it was pretty easy though and the others took me not more that 12 seconds. In India if we use calculators inclass then we will get thrown out of the class and if we use calculator in exams then it is considered cheating and our papers would be cancelled.
First one is easy as hell. 87 +87 80+80 160 and 7+7 14 160+14 174 Btw i forgot to put the equal sign but doesn't matter... And the others 12×14 14×10 is 140 and 14×2 is 28 so 168
Man please don't brag. These qre adults who haven't have had the remotest connection to maths if they work in healthcare, art, fashion. You are student, and considering that you are an Indian, taking the science stream, so this is none the less expected. 🙁

East Europeans are at Par with SE Asians and East Asians when it comes Math and Sciences. Mostly East Europeans and SE and East Asians are the ones topping most of the international competitive exams .
I’m European and I’ve hated math my whole life, I even attended an high school specialised in humanistic studies to avoid doing as much math as I could. Still, most of what these people said about math in China is the same here. Those questions were not so hard. I could answer them at 10 I think (remember, I really suck at math!) surely better than the way I answerd them now after many years out of school. The thing is, that was really elementary school math. As soon as you get to middle school here, you start using big numbers always less and less, since arithmetic is something you have to have already learned before. There is no time to waste with that. So at age 11 we start algebra, which normally doesn’t use big numbers. And with that said, we also study a lot of geometry.
It is obvious 95% maths student will always say well I'm not that much good in maths, but once you will ask the question they will give you the ans even before you complete your question... 😂😂😂
Same here I also learned them in 6th grade. I am an Indian. But now I am living in New Zealand and they are teaching that thing to us in 10th grade and they don't know how to do that.
To be honest, when I was educated in China, what teachers taught are very helpful to get a higher score, which is not the systematic and structural way. I start to revisit Math due to a job in recent years and finally feel the amazing world, it is absolutely fun!
those are actually the easier questions.but if you see their test paper you will know it is much harder.i think the test is set in US,thats why its so easy.Chinese and Indians always do well in US universities.
there are two kind of maths 1. maths for daily life 2. maths for applications and being good at maths for first type make you life easy, and totally depends on your habits. not on country, and it's all about being fast mostly 2 type maths need study, it's not about being fast it's about solve complex functions.
I somewhat enjoyed math up to learning Geometry. After that I didn't care so much anymore afterwards. But I would say it's our parents that pressure us for good grades.
The thing is we have memorized some values of sqaures and root overtime bcoz those are the values we have to convert very often in problems that's why the guy also said 'ive memorized this before' its just that we practice alot of problems and are not allowed to use calculators so to avoid calculating everytime we memorize few values
The interviewer confuses mathematics with arithmetic: a central purpose of the former lies in avoiding the latter. Memorizing multiplication tables is nice and all but only tangentially related to that outstanding IMO performance. Greetings from Germany
Maybe next time when reporting on this some of the questions could be more along the lines of the following: -Why are complex numbers becoming so damn unimaginative when they decide to multiply in monogamy? -Why are derivatives always so sensitive to change and is this even a question or functionally just a slippery slope? -Can a curve, let's call him Zeno, be curving to infinity (and beyond) and still enclose a most definitely finite area? Is this integral to living costs being on the limit? -Where had Euler's identity characteristically been valued as purely imaginary during matrix revolutions? -Did i only have half of Euler's pi? If so, why is his whole pi much like having a negative one? -Is it true that Fourier transformed a decomposed circle into a vibrant square? Please raise your hands harmonically and wave them accordingly. edit: i'm sorry if i upset someone with these terrible puns, they scaled truly zero, just all over la place.
You are right man, but this is a street interview, it’s not like they can grab a chair , a pen and a sheet of paper...but frankly, the average Chinese young people would be able to answer those questions, but not that fast, they might have picked the smart ones by accident...
@@ancienttime6307 I don't doubt that Chinese schools will keep laying great emphasis on teaching natural sciences (i experienced four years of education in a former socialist state myself, probably a viable comparison). These kids are a some proof of schools succeeding. Which is good, i think.

The reason Asians are so good at mental calculation is because we didn't use calculator and it's restricted most of the time. When I moved to America, I saw how students are so reliant to calculator. In fact, I got the calculator part wrong on my first test because I didn't know how to use it lol.
Just some basic arithmetic calculations do not measure actual 'math' skills. Start doing calculus questions, some differentials and stuff. That's the stuff that requires insight rather then plain indoctrinated/practiced calculations.
Exactly. Where I live (Arab country), most people are damn terrible at math, but every high-school student knows by heart everything related to double-digit numbers arithmetic, you would think they're pretty good at math if you asked them this type of questions, but they're not; it is just pure memorization.
And why the hell you need to Arithmetic calculation? You got technology like calculator btw. Absolutely wasting time The true genius at math = solving problem with the simplest way
@@Nobodyss21 that's actually false. It isn't about solving in simple way, it's about understanding fundamentals and connecting the dots. That's all math is about.
Yes man I'm sure a guy would be able to solve differential equations and calculus when he can't answer 5x5 correctly(in USA students struggled with this question)
I love this video, I come back to use as motivation at times.

Not every child had parents that could afford tutors, and since I attended poor schools learning certain subjects (peacefully) was a challenge for me.

Western countries are good at something too. But the Chinese interviewees said "yes, this stereo type is true. All Chinese r good at maths." In other words Indians were more down to earth.

In our whole one year we did nothing in maths but integration and derivation. And in college you choose engg. Then add 4 more years of int and deri.. Playing with graphs,trigonometry etc...
If they just remember the answers because they memorized them, then it's not impressive; but if they are actually making the calculation in their minds and answering in 3 seconds, it is quite impressive. Of course there will always be people much better than them; but I can tell you they are much better than average.
true, i really don't see the point of learning operations ... so stupid like "oh i don't need a calculator" ok how about i had 2 like 256 becomes 256.85 i don't think you can do that in your head ... @@vanessaruiz4705
I think that math is not just about how fast you can calculate, the more important thing is about concepts and what you can do with them. Like of course anyone with good practice and memorisation can answer the square root of any numbers easily, but not anyone can understand about advanced math concepts like tensors, graph theory, etc and make good use of them in solving problems. As a chinese, I can say that we are only in equal footing with the rest of the world in terms of understanding concepts.

In India, calculators are needed for sums like 20 log (cos(2pi/3).
or 12.5 sin (2*pi*2000*2*10^-3 + 1.583).
We need them but we don't use it for 51 *2, or 39+55.

@@completeuncertainty2561 In India we r taught the same too. But it wud be better if instead of making us memorize they taught us faster techniques to calculate any square. Sadly we hv to learn that ourselves from parents or some age old aryabhatta book

So any of the 2 answers is correct.

Answers all the questions correctly.

So basically in China & India peoples memorise qubes, sqaures & squareroots from early childhood... & you see the results!!... (No CALCULATORS*)
And multiplying Tables upto 100...before you reach 10 years of age
At least table upto 10 is enough.. For example cube of nine is 9×9×9 = 81×9 =729
sqrt(256) = either 14 or 16 cause for only square of unit digit 4 and 6 only produce 6 in unit digit.
It's just the way their educational system work. Learning everything by heart, learning tricks to calculate mentally faster. It can be considered good and it can be considered bad.
Upto 100? Nope only 20 , you did too extra not that it hurts , but not necessary
@@ashutoshkumar1960 100 before reaching 10??? Nope
Asians are really good at math... here in India also students learn basic math in class/grade 1 at the age of 5.... Like China square roots also introduce in middle school at the age of 10 .
You might be surprised to know that it's the same in the US. Middle school students get the basics of advanced math. However, the focus is more on understanding the concepts than memorization. Memorization is good for test taking because you can calculate faster. But for complex problems, you have to understand the process or you will not get the right answer.

Mostly East Europeans and SE and East Asians are the ones topping most of the international competitive exams .
I’m European and I’ve hated math my whole life, I even attended an high school specialised in humanistic studies to avoid doing as much math as I could. Still, most of what these people said about math in China is the same here. Those questions were not so hard. I could answer them at 10 I think (remember, I really suck at math!) surely better than the way I answerd them now after many years out of school. The thing is, that was really elementary school math. As soon as you get to middle school here, you start using big numbers always less and less, since arithmetic is something you have to have already learned before. There is no time to waste with that. So at age 11 we start algebra, which normally doesn’t use big numbers. And with that said, we also study a lot of geometry.

True, but for second one being good in first one is important. One single wrong calculation and it's over
I somewhat enjoyed math up to learning Geometry. After that I didn't care so much anymore afterwards. But I would say it's our parents that pressure us for good grades.
The thing is we have memorized some values of sqaures and root overtime bcoz those are the values we have to convert very often in problems that's why the guy also said 'ive memorized this before' its just that we practice alot of problems and are not allowed to use calculators so to avoid calculating everytime we memorize few values

The interviewer confuses mathematics with arithmetic: a central purpose of the former lies in avoiding the latter. Memorizing multiplication tables is nice and all but only tangentially related to that outstanding IMO performance. Greetings from Germany
Maybe next time when reporting on this some of the questions could be more along the lines of the following:
-Why are complex numbers becoming so damn unimaginative when they decide to multiply in monogamy?
-Why are derivatives always so sensitive to change and is this even a question or functionally just a slippery slope?
-Can a curve, let's call him Zeno, be curving to infinity (and beyond) and still enclose a most definitely finite area? Is this integral to living costs being on the limit?
-Where had Euler's identity characteristically been valued as purely imaginary during matrix revolutions?
-Did i only have half of Euler's pi? If so, why is his whole pi much like having a negative one?
-Is it true that Fourier transformed a decomposed circle into a vibrant square? Please raise your hands harmonically and wave them accordingly.

The reason Asians are so good at mental calculation is because we didn't use calculator and it's restricted most of the time. When I moved to America, I saw how students are so reliant to calculator. In fact, I got the calculator part wrong on my first test because I didn't know how to use it lol.
Them speaking is like music to my ears idk why it's satisfying af
Just some basic arithmetic calculations do not measure actual 'math' skills.
Start doing calculus questions, some differentials and stuff.
That's the stuff that requires insight rather then plain indoctrinated/practiced calculations.
Exactly. Where I live (Arab country), most people are damn terrible at math, but every high-school student knows by heart everything related to double-digit numbers arithmetic, you would think they're pretty good at math if you asked them this type of questions, but they're not; it is just pure memorization.
Yup, a kid can memorize these. No big deal
And why the hell you need to Arithmetic calculation? You got technology like calculator btw. Absolutely wasting time
The true genius at math = solving problem with the simplest way
@@Nobodyss21 that's actually false. It isn't about solving in simple way, it's about understanding fundamentals and connecting the dots. That's all math is about.
Yes man I'm sure a guy would be able to solve differential equations and calculus when he can't answer 5x5 correctly(in USA students struggled with this question)
I love this video, I come back to use as motivation at times. I am not generalizing all of America, but I wish more American schools did more to help students to excel at math and mental calculations. Not every child had parents that could afford tutors, and since I attended poor schools learning certain subjects (peacefully) was a challenge for me.
Interviewer: Indians and Chinese are good at maths that is the stereotype so how much is 1+1
Person: 2
Interviewer : so the stereotype is true
Haha if you really want to test their
Math skills ask some real questions man not basic arithmetics
They asked the same questions in India😂😂💔 and the response was same. Except Indians were little bit better and more polite about westerner feelings while talking
To do harder questions, people need a good understanding of these basic arithmetic questions
@@aakshikartik4982 lol,u're so biased... i see u in other comments too posting biased comments
@@liyanns8998 lol what is biased in here!😂💔 He told these questions were easy, they should have asked difficult questions. I told, they asked same questions in India also. So it will be unfair if they had asked tough questions here from calculous. And what I said is totally correct. In case of Indians, they told that this stereotype is not true always. Western countries are good at something too. But the Chinese interviewees said "yes, this stereo type is true. All Chinese r good at maths." In other words Indians were more down to earth.
@@liyanns8998 and let me know, which other comments r u talking about also. I m never biased. I tell the truth
Bro those questions u asked was too easy . it's primary school math
yea
It's what my dad calls second grade level stuff
Actually school going small kids can answer these even faster
yes it is, but I doubt an engineer could prove a numbers theory on the side of a street with no pen and paper
Those are just random guys in the street.
12 squared? A 10 year old would know that
144
Exactly.
Exactly
Sorry im 9 year old
I’m an Indian I’m 11 but I still find difficult. I HATE MATHS
Being an Indian, they were so much easy for me that i did all of them without even blinking my eyes. They are considered super easy questions in India (and that's the fact, they are easy)
I can even calculate upto 20 powers of 2 in my mind
Chinese : We are the best in Mathematics.😁
Indians : Hold my beer.🍺
Why
What you thinks only india can match lol
IMO champions:CHINESE and AMERICAN CHINESE.
@@gaialva9359 that's because Indians don't participate much in IMO. People are busy for IIT Jee and Medical entrance. IMO is not that of an prestige here. Only math expertise is of no use here. It doesn't add up much valueto your CV. You have to be good at Physics Chemistry and Biology equally. People don't have time for IMO, while chasing for IIT.
don't forget Russia and Iran (now you see why math is so important)
i live in singapore and had a few china chinese friends as classmates and i would say 9 out of 10 china students are good in maths lol the only subject we really struggle beating them
edit: okay i am only speaking for myself, not all singaporeans. i was good at math but not enough to compete with them. ask me those math questions asked in the video and i would need to use a calculator 😂
crsh; I am sure that the Singaporeans had no trouble beating them at either English or Chinese languages.
Aren't Singaporean also Chinese?
Ride With Me 75 percent singaporean are chinese
Ride With Me not all
But Singaporeans are for 70% Chinese
Ooohhhh They went to Beijing this time 😱😱 awesome!!!
When my high school friend had exchange to US, she said that her friends use calculator to find out 14^2. That's shocking, while we here in Indonesia has to find out what is the square root of 196 by elementary school. Without calculator. Even so, we are still struggling if we have to compete with Chinese or Singaporean on math olympics.
to prove that they’re really good at “math”, i recommend u ask them some questions about advanced calculus or complex function.
Just challenge them to trigonometric function
Integration of sin2x.cos2x..
..something like that or u want more complex..
In our whole one year we did nothing in maths but integration and derivation. And in college you choose engg. Then add 4 more years of int and deri.. Playing with graphs,trigonometry etc...
True
But we will need a paper for that.
Those math questions are very simple, because those are already tested in school so people do memorized them to a certain degree.
It's not even really "math" questions more like arithmetic or elementary school math.
If they just remember the answers because they memorized them, then it's not impressive; but if they are actually making the calculation in their minds and answering in 3 seconds, it is quite impressive. Of course there will always be people much better than them; but I can tell you they are much better than average.
true, i really don't see the point of learning operations ... so stupid like "oh i don't need a calculator" ok how about i had 2 like 256 becomes 256.85 i don't think you can do that in your head ... @@vanessaruiz4705
@@funniummotenmium6156 you can still solve that problem easily using pen and paper. Vedic math makes them even more easier to solve.
I can do it in my elementry school
I think that math is not just about how fast you can calculate, the more important thing is about concepts and what you can do with them. Like of course anyone with good practice and memorisation can answer the square root of any numbers easily, but not anyone can understand about advanced math concepts like tensors, graph theory, etc and make good use of them in solving problems. As a chinese, I can say that we are only in equal footing with the rest of the world in terms of understanding concepts.
