   Squaring numbers in the 900s

1. Choose a number in the 900s - start out easy with numbers near 1000; then go lower when expert.
2. Subtract the number from 1000 to get the difference.
3. The first three places will be the number minus the difference: X X X _ _ _.
4. The last three places will be the square of the difference: _ _ _ X X X
   (if 4 digits, add the first digit as carry).

   Example:

1. If the number to be squared is 985:
2. Subtract 1000 - 985 = 15 (difference)
3. Number - difference: 985 - 15 = 970: 9 7 0 _ _ _
4. Square the difference: 15 × 15 = 225: _ _ _ 2 2 5
5. So 985 × 985 = 970225.

   See the pattern?

1. If the number to be squared is 920:
2. Subtract 1000 - 920 = 80 (difference)
3. Number - difference: 920 - 80 = 840: 8 4 0 _ _ _
4. Square the difference: 80 × 80 = 6400: _ _ _ 4 0 0
5. Carry first digit when four digits: 8 4 6 _ _ _
6. So 920 × 920 = 846400.
