    The first time I saw this way of multiplying was about 8 years ago living in Pennsylvania. My parents' foster kid (5th grader at the time) was teaching me how to do it so I could check their work. Literally blew me away!

    I teach maths to college students in the UK. Students have a range of 3 methods that they have seen before. The standard column method, the grid method 9gives big numbers) and this being the chinese lattice method. The lattice method is usually only recognised by a couple in a class of 20. It always surprises me as it has a number of advantages. Smaller numbers, handles decimals easily but can be hard for some students to lay out accurately. I show students how to use it and let them choose which method they prefer.

    The advantage of this method is that it breaks everything down into far simpler problems. The disadvantage is that I feel like I lose a sense of what the original numbers are. It feels like I am solving simple, unrelated problems and then getting a correct answer without any idea why it's the answer. With the standard algorithm, I always have a feel for what the ones, tens, hundreds and thousands are. But with this method, I don't feel like I know what's what.

    I remember back in junior school I had problems with my "Times Tables" . From that start I got further and further behind becoming dispondant.
    My Dad (used to be a miner ant then went to uni) tried to help me by showing me these new fangled calculators! Brilliant I remember thinking, no need for all the brainwork.
    "No Son. They won't let you use one of them ..... and what happens when the battery runs out"? Well I could use the "slipstick" (slide rule) ....... only school did not like that at all!
    So basically I gave up!
    Don't get me wrong I am no dummie!
    I learned to fly (yes you need to use a slide rule for that) and have had a good career in the utilities industry (where I have to explain to customers about some fairly advanced basic math ideas (phase angles and resonance caused by inverters) but as I approach retirement I find these tricks fascinating ......... Why did they not teach me this in school?
    Thanks for the tips.

    Hi Josh, I always put my second set of numbers down the right side of the box that way it doesn't confuse the addition.
    I did it years ago for my niece's and they had completions to see who would win
    Il also created an excel spreadsheet to set it up for them

    This method is taught in my secondary school in the UK. It's called either the Chinese method or Napier's bones. It's the only method I've taught for the last 17 years for multiplication and it's easy to apply to decimals. The only difference is we would put the second number on the right side of the grid so it doesn't interfere with the addition.

    This is literally a more graphical version of the normal method we learned. If you do the first problem normally, it looks like this:
    342
    _23
    1026
    684
    __
    7866
    Notice the numbers 1026 and 684 that you add up. The carry is even handled the same way. This might be good for visualizing what you're doing... but it is literally exactly what you've always been doing.

    • @ricos1497
      @ricos1497 10 месяцев назад +1

      You're right. The question is, is it easier to develop a method of visualising the lattice in your head, than each multiplication result in the traditional way? A way to do these longer sums (3 digit X 3 digit) in my head would be good, but I'm not convinced I could adapt either method to properly memorize the calculation as I go through.

It's kinda like training wheels I guess, but only ever so barely. It is taking the normal method, and drawing lines all over it.

      I'm a maths teacher, this method creates fewer mistakes. Student with column multiplication often forget to add in the zero's as you move to the tens line or 00 when you move to the hundreds line etc and therefore get the wrong answer. This method is more robust.
