What is the best math trick you have ever learned?

 It's Not any Maths Trick , But a Miracle of Numbers which I Found by Mistake ( Timepass kar Raha tha )

Take a Calculator.

Add Numbers by line Diagonally with their own reverse . Ex. (159+951)=1110

Now do this for both diagonals and horizontal and vertical lines of numbers in calculator which passes through center you will get same answer i.e. 1110 .

  • 159 + 951 = 1110
  • 357 + 753 = 1110
  • 258 + 852 = 1110
  • 456 + 654 = 1110

This is not the real fun .

It is Here , In all above equation ( Cases ) , the common thing is middle term i.e. 5 . AND If you multiply term (5) by 2 , it is 10 both the digits of 10 is present at first and last digit of 1110 . AND If both the digits of 10 is added we get 1 , which is present in the middle part of 1110 .

Let's take it further ,

Add 123456789 and 987654321 you will get 1111111110 , Common Thing , Middle term is 5 again.

Amazing , let's take it even further

We done this trick for number line Passing through centre only . Now take number line which did not pass through centre ( i.e.5) :-

  • 123 + 321 = 444
  • 147 + 741 = 888
  • 369 + 963 = 1332
  • 789 + 987 = 1776

See Something , The Answer is Multiple of 444 , like 444*4=1776. The common thing in this is Middle Term only . Middle term is also getting multipled with same sequence 2468 .

Now ,

In First and Second Equation , If we multiply middle term by 2 we will get 4 and 8 , which is nothing but the first and last digits of 444 and 888.

In Third and Fourth Equation , If we Multiply middle term by 2 , we will get 12 and 16 , which is nothing but the first and last digit of 1332 and 1776 . And If we add both the digits 1+2=3 and 1+6=7 , this two numbers 3 and 7 are the middle terms of 1332 and 1776 .

Still Hungry ? ,

Let's Take Differences of all the above equations and see the Magic Once Again .

  • All Horizontals
  • 321 - 123 = 198
  • 987 - 789 = 198
  • 654 - 456 = 198
  • All Verticals
  • 741 - 147 = 594
  • 852 - 258 = 594
  • 963 - 369 = 594
  • Diagonals
  • 753 - 357 = 396
  • 951 - 159 = 792

Notice , Some thing , all results are multiple of 198 . It works with triangles also like 351 - 153 = 198 .

I Found this while I was passing my time on Calculator and found this .
