That may have been a good lead in to logarithms.

Thank you for continuing to share the love of math!

Love this, first saw in the brilliant @MarcusduSautoy series The Story of Mathematics If you haven't watched the series I highly recommend it...he's an absolutely outstanding maths communicator...a bit like yourself 👍

This is how microcoded binary multipliers work. Not fast, but simple.

Cool variation of the use of distributive property to multiply big numbers. 13(8+4+1)
