On Valentine’s Day, Seena was on cloud 9. A classroom full of little angels came on Skype to our home to wish me and my wife Seena, “A happy Valentine’s Day”.

Lorraine Leo, Jackson School Teacher, arranged a Skype session on Vedic Mathematics with me.
Five is Fine Lesson
2x5=10. Two times 5 gives half of two, 1 and a 0
4x5=20. Four times 5 gives half of four, 2 and a 0
6x5=30. Six times 5 gives half of six, 3 and a 0
Hypothesis: Any even number times 5 give half the even number and a 0
4x5=20. Four times 5 gives half of four, 2 and a 0
6x5=30. Six times 5 gives half of six, 3 and a 0
Hypothesis: Any even number times 5 give half the even number and a 0
22x5=110
222x5=1110
2222x5=11110
2468642x5=12343210
It has to be! After all, you can multiply by 5 or you can divide by 2 and then multiply by 10!
Our method simplifies the number first by halving it and then adds a zero to get the answer.
