do people actually ask these questions during an interview? if yes just whip your phone and get the answer

yep. since stuff like 25x25 or 44*68 is too "mainstream", they've started moving to triple digits as well all the while completely surprising you after a preceding question that was relaxing and unrelated.
you have keep your slaves hard, don't you. dumb wagies have to be tested by some "interviewers". pathetic, deserved
Easy way to do this in your head is 43 x 100 which is 4300, then you divide this outcome by 4
4000 divided by 4 is obviously 1000 and 300 divided by 4 is 75.
Your answer is therefore 1075
reverse engineering a solution like that in the moment for me is probably more difficult than doing outright. I would have done 20 and 5 times 40, that's 800 + 200. then comes the 25 x3 that's 75
Here's a quick way to do it brother.
I would do 25x40...shit what's that though?
Try again, 20x40 = 2x4= 8 and add the two zeros = 800.
So now we are left with 5 x40 which is simple enough 200.
So 800 + 200 = 1000.
And all we have left is 25x 3 since we didn't do that yet, which is 75.
So 1075. I hope you learnt something new today frend.
that's good and all, but I forget the figures im multiplying when im under stress. fuck
