An Example of Vedic Math An Example of Vedic Math Example 1 14 x 17, here base of both the numbers are the same, ie. 10. The first number is 4 more than 10 and the second is 7 more than 10. For convenience we call these as the deviations. Hence the deviations of 14 and 17 from 10 are 4 and 7 respectively. Step 1: Add the deviation of one number with the other number.That means; either 14 + or 17 + 7 4 21 21 in both case it the same answer 21. Step 2: Since the base is 10 multiply the above sum with 10. 21 x 10 = 210 Step 3: Multiply the deviations. 4 x 7 = 28 Step 4: Add the answers in Step 2 and Step 3. 210 + 28 238 So we got the answer 14 x 17 = 238 Reference: http://www.mathsmagic.in/vedic-maths--problems.html
