Lattice Method: A History Ø Lattice multiplication appeared in the first printed arithmetic book, printed in Treviso (Italy) in 1478. Ø Lattice multiplication was introduced into Europe by Fibonacci (whose correct name is Leonardo of Pisa). Ø Learned the use of Arabic numerals from a Moorish teacher in North Africa. Ø Before the Hindu-Arabic system was used in Europe, multiplication was often done with counters. Ø The Hindu-Arabic system made calculation fairly simple.
Here is how to multiply 469 x 37. First write the numbers on a grid:
• Then multiply each pair of digits:
Finally, total the diagonals: The final product is 17,353.
Dear Dr. Math, • “We learned the traditional way of multiplying, and it works, but I don't see how it works when you put the numbers on a square. Why and how does it work? I asked my teacher and she said, ‘Magic.”
Dear Student, • “Math is never magic - it's just that the reasons are sometimes pretty well hidden. basis of any method of multiplying is the distributive property.”
Notice that the first digit of each product will add into the second digit of the diagonal to its left. Splitting each product into two digits and draw diagonals demonstrates this:
1
4 6 9 +------+------+------+ | 1 /| 1 /| 2 /| | / | / | / | 3 | / 2 | / 8 | / 7 | +------+------+------+ / | 2 /| 4 /| 6 / | / | / | / | / | 7 / | / 8 | / 2 | / 3 | / +------+------+------+ / / / / / 7 3 5 3 Regroup as you write the sum of each diagonal, gives you the lattice method, with as little writing as possible.
