Life Hack: Do you suck at math? Well here's an easy tip for the 9 times table

1) Hold up your hands

2) put the thumb of your left hand down and count the fingers to the right of the thumb: there are 9

3) All fingers extended, put down the index finger of your left hand: the number of fingers to the left of the lowered finger is the tens, the number of fingers to the right are the ones. 2x9 =18

4) A second example. All fingers extended, put down the middle finger of your left hand. the number of fingers to the left of the lowered finger are the tens, the number of fingers to the right are the ones. 3x9=27

You're welcome

@Pikachu I have dyscalculia (dyslexia but with numbers) so I have no idea if this is a serious post even. I leant this knifty trick which I know works.

On paper, with 9 times tables you can count up and down in sequence on Each side. Each number also adds up to 9. I don't know if that helps anyone else be less dense where numbers are concerned.

9
18
27
36
45
54
63
72
81
90
99

It's no joke and while i can see how your version works, i find counting on my fingers easier😅
