(25)^2= (2*3 25)=625
(35)^2 =(3*4 25)=1225
(45)^2=(4*5 25)=2025
Let "10x + 5" be represented as [x][5]. Ex. 25 as [2][5].
.
Now,
[x][5] * [x][5]
= [x*(x+1)] [2] [5]
.
.
This applies to any 2 numbers satisfying following conditions:
Ist Number: [a] [b]
IInd Number: [a] [c]
Conditions:
1. As you can note, the left digit should be same in bothe numbers, i.e. [a], here.
2. 'b' + 'c' = 10
.
Then,
[a] [b] * [a] [c]
= [a*(a+1)] [b*c]
.
Example:
23*27
= [2*(2+1)] [3*7]
= [2*3] [21]
= [6] [2] [1]
= 621
