Trachtenberg Speed Maths - Pdf

Friends, today we are giving you one of the useful books on mathematics. That is The Trachetenberg System of Speed Maths. And before going to download and read the book, lets read a small story of our hero Jakow Trachtenberg (The inventor of a system of rapid mental Calculation known as The Trachtenberg System). He created the Trachtenberg system of mathematics, whilst a political prisoner in Hilter's concentration camps during the second world War. To keep himself sane whilst living in an extremely brutal and harsh environment, Trachtenberg immersed his mind in a world of mathematics and calculations. As concentration camps do not provide books, paper, pen or pencils nearly all of his calculations had to be performed mentally. This forced Trachtenberg to develop methods and shortcuts for performing calculations mentally. Trachtenberg developed his discoveries into a complete system of mathematics.

Data Interpretation

Data Interpretation,  the one of the easiest, time taking and scoring topic of the Bank Exams.  Everybody knows this fact... but people pay less attention on this area. But unfortunately in SBI PO Exam, the complete aptitude section will depend on Data Interpretation. So you should concentrate more on this area.

In this post, we shall discuss about the basics Data Interpretation.  The Data Interpretation is also called as comprehension of mathematics. Because, in reading comprehension, we have to study the passage and answer the questions followed by that passage. In the same way, in Data Interpretation, some data is given in the form of graphs, charts and tables followed by questions. We have to study, understand and analyze the data to solve the questions. Here we have to keep in mind that, even a 10th standard boy can solve these problems. But you've to solve these problems IN TIME.

So you have to practice well so that you can do the small calculations (like additions, subtractions, and simple multiplications) with a glance (see here for shortcuts in mental maths). Now lets have a look at some basic details of Data Interpretations.

Line Graphs

The line graph is another important type of graph. The line graph displays information as a series of data points connected by some straight line segments (or simply lines). You can simply say that the Line Graph is the graph which uses points connected by lines to show how something changes in value. Lets have a look at an example Line Graph so that we can understand the topic in detail.

Multiple Bar Diagram

This model is also same as the simple Bar Diagram. But the difference is, here we have to encounter more than one bar... I mean, we have to do problems with two or more vertical or horizontal bars. In these type of diagrams normally they will give the information of two different organizations (like the production of soaps of two different companies) or the information of two different items of the same organization (like the production of the soaps and shampoos of the same company) and asks questions on the given data. Have a look at an example.

Simple Method for Calculating Shortcut for Square - Part 2

We've already seen how to find the squares of numbers which are one more than those whose squares we already know (eg 25, 30, 35 etc).Read that post Here. Similarly, we can find the squares of numbers which are one less than the numbers whose squares are known already to us. For Example,

292 = 30 - 30th odd number = 900 - 59 = 841

392 = 40 - 40th odd number = 1600 - 79 = 1521

342 = 1225 - 69 = 1156

542 = 3025 - 109 = 2916

742 = 5625 - 149 = 5476

942 = 9025 - 189 = 8836

2142 = 46225 - 429 = 45796

Shortcut for Square - A Simple Method

We have already discussed a method for finding the squares of the given number (check that method Here). Now we shall discuss another simplest method to calculate square of the given number. First of all one thing you should keep in mind, for you r convinience we've mentioned each and every step in detail. But You should do all these calculations MENTALLY. I mean without using pen or pencil. So practice well to do these problems orally. Now lets go to the topic, Finding the square of a number ending in 5 is very simple. If the last digit of the number is 5, then the last two digits of the square will be 25.What ever is the earlier part of the number multiply it with one more than itself and that will be the first part of the answer. (The second part of the answer will be 25 only).

Shortcut for Multiplication (Base Number Method Part 2)

We've already discussed about the Shortcut Method (Base Number Method) for doing multiplications. In the earlier post we've discussed doing the multiplication by taking the base as 100 (Click Here to read that). I mean, you can do the multiplication for the numbers nearer to the 100. Then what about the remaining numbers? Well, being the Guide 4 Bank Exams we have solutions for all Banking Problems... So, lets have a look at some more approaches of the Base Number Method so that it will be easier for you to multiply any number with any number :)

Find the product of 117 and 88

117   --->   +17

  88   --->   -12

105             -204           Ans : 10296

Shortcut for Multiplication (Base Number Method)

We've already discussed some short cut tips for Multiplications. You can check that post Here. Now we shall discuss another  Simple and Useful method for Multiplication. In this method we take a base (according to the given numbers) and do the multiplication according to that base. Assume that you have to multiply 97 with 92. The power of 10 to which these two numbers are close is 100. We call this 100 as the base. Now write these two numbers with the difference from the base. 

97 ------>  -3  (because 97 is obtained as 100 - 3)

92 ------> -8 (because 92 is obtained as 100  -8)

How to improve Calculation Speed

Calculation Speed plays a very very very important role in Bank Exams. Some people think that, people should have the natural ability to do calculations fast, of course that is true at some extent. But that doesn't mean the other ordinary people like you and me need not feel bad.

According to Aerodynamics Laws based on Weight and the Size of the wings, some species only do have the ability to fly. If we strictly apply their laws, a Bee cant fly. Because its weight is More and Wing's length is very less when compared to its Weight. But still it is flying very comfortably and enjoying the Honey in almost every flower. 

Sometimes Old rules and blind beliefs remain worthless. Forecasters' predictions become wrong. Only The Belief in You and Hard work will create wonders. Trust me, it is very easy to develop good calculation speed in a relatively short period of
