Quizplus · Accepted Answer

25 x 60 = 1,500. To multiply a number by 25, just add two zeroes to the end of the number and divide by 4. In this case, change 60 to 6000, then divide by 4, which equals 1500.
Key Takeaway: It is always easiest to calculate if you can manipulate numbers in terms of ones, tens, and hundreds.
