Multiplying Consecutive Integers By 8:

A.  There is a pattern that develops when multiplying consecutive integers by 8.

1.  This method works only if you are multiplying increasing consecutive integers (MUST start with 1) by 8 and adding the last digit back.

2.  The answer will be in the form: 987...., where the number of digits is equal to the number of digits be multiplied by.

Ex [1]  1234 x 8 + 4 = __________.

a.  Since there are 4 digits we write 9876.  (Notice there are only 4 digits in the answer.)

b.  The answer is 9876.

Ex [2]  12345678 x 8 + 8 = __________.

a.  Since there are 8 digits we write 98765432.

b.  The answer is 98765432.

B.  As in the case with Multiplying By 9 (#1) and Multiplying By 9 (#2) you must be careful that the number added is equal to the last digit.
