Can anyone solve this within 30 Secs using Trick?

1) 68% of 595 - 43% of 372 = ?


2) (96)² + (63)² = (?)² - (111)² - 8350


3) [(135)² ÷ 15 * 32] ÷ ? = 45 * 24


4) (739% of 383) ÷ 628 = ?


5) 814296 * 36 = ? * 96324


6) 628.306 + 6.1325 * 44.0268 = ?


7) (935.82)² = ?


8) 92.5% of 550 = ?

Plz dont use calculator, Use only Paper, Pen and Brain

Hi;

Plz dont use calculator, Use only Paper, Pen and Brain

I don't require a brain , I have one already. Anyway. it just slows you down.

Could do 8  in my head but you need to be able to multiply in your head quickly.

10% of 550 = 55
9* 55 = 495
1/4 of 55 = 13.75
495 + 13.75 = 508.75

3) Is also easy to do in your head because there is so much cancellation;

3) [(135)² ÷ 15 * 32] ÷ ? = 45 * 24

135 / 15 = 9
135 / 45 = 3

reduced down to

27*32 / x = 24 Divide again by 24

( 9 / 8 ) *32 / x = 1

32 / 8 = 4

36 / x = 1  So x = 36

In mathematics, you don't understand things. You just get used to them.
If it ain't broke, fix it until it is.
Always satisfy the Prime Directive of getting the right answer above all else.
