How to do them fast

Split the two-digit number into tens and ones, multiply each, and add.

17 ร— 6 = 102
10 ร— 6 = 60 โ†’ 7 ร— 6 = 42 โ†’ 60 + 42 = 102

Just under a ten? Multiply the ten and take a little off.

28 ร— 7 = 196
30 ร— 7 = 210 โ†’ 2 ร— 7 = 14 โ†’ 210 โˆ’ 14 = 196

Around 4 seconds each is good; under 3 is fast. More methods are in the mental math tricks.
