    Vedic Math Sutra: Sutra 3 – Urdhava – Tiryagbyham

    |

    In Vedic mathematics, “Urdhava-Tiryagbyham” is a sutra that refers to a multiplication technique. It is often translated as “vertically and crosswise.”

    The Urdhava-Tiryagbyham sutra is used for multiplying two-digit numbers mentally and quickly. It allows for multiplying numbers by breaking them down into more uncomplicated steps.

    Here’s a step-by-step explanation of how the Urdhava-Tiryagbyham sutra works:

    Part 1

    Let’s apply the Urdhava-Tiryagbyham method to multiply two-digit numbers 12×24 

    Step 1: Multiply the right digits of the two numbers  vertically 

    2×4-=8

    Answer 8 is the extreme right digit of our answer.

    Step 2: Diagonally multiply the digits of our numbers

    (1×4)+(2×2)=8

    8 is the second digit of our answer.

    Step 3: Vertically multiply the left digits of the two numbers

    1×2=2

    2 is the most left digit of our answer.

    So, using the Urdhava-Tiryagbyham method, 12×24 =288.

    Part 2

    Let’s apply the Urdhava-Tiryagbyham method to multiply 

    three-digit number 244×432

    Step 1: Multiply the extreme right numbers vertically 

    4×2=8

    8 is the first digit of our answer: we are going right to left

    Step 2:  Multiply the last two digits of the numbers diagonally 

    (4×2)+(3×4)

    8+12=20

    Zero is the second digit of our answer. Carryover 2. 

    Step 3: Now multiply the extreme left and extreme right digits diagonally. Multiply the middle digits vertically.

    (2×2) + (4×4) + (4×3)

    4+16+12=32

    Now, add the carried-over number to this answer

    32+2=34

    4 is the third digit of the answer. Carryover 3.

    Step 4: Now, multiply the first two digits of the numbers diagonally.

    (2×3) + (4×4)

    6+16=22

    Now add the carried-over number to the answer.

    22+3=25

    5 is the fourth digit of the answer. Carryover 2 

    Step 5: Take the first digits of the numbers and multiply them vertically.

    2×4=8

    Now add carried-over number = 8+2=10

    The Final answer is 105408
