    Before I look, I'm guessing you multiply 99 by 100 and subtract 198.

    Eyeam,your trick is awesome! Try multiplying 89 * 92 though big_smile. Gets a bit tougher! If you practise the trick in the hub you will begin doing those multiplications unconsiously! 8188 Btw ;D

    I haven't decided yet, do you think it should be another arithmetic trick or a cool puzzle!?
