VEDIC MATHS :Multiplying by sixteen

First, multiply the number in question by 10. Then multiply half the number by 10. Then add those two results together with the number itself to get your final answer.

For example: 16 × 24
Step 1: 24 × 10 = 240
Step 2: (24 × 1/2) × 10 = 12 × 10 = 120
Step 3: add steps 1 and 2 and the number = 240 + 120 + 24 = 384
