that's... exactly how i do my mental math. sort of a difficult process to explain and make it sound useful? but yeah, whether i'm adding/subtracting/dividing/multiplying/squaring/rooting.... mentally i always start out finding an approximation that is close to the real answer, then using techniques like in that image i hone my way to the correct answer. though, i would have gone 26 + 14 = 40, 17 - 14 = 3, 40 + 3 = 43. =p |
