Quick Multiplication

Delete clones himself with each sneeze, and he sneezes 103 times. Lucky claims that it will take too long to use addition to calculate the number of clones he has created. Inez creates another table and suggests they start with a multiple that is close to 103. The group uses her strategy to quickly determine that Delete has created 309 clones of himself.

0:19
that's close to 103
0:21
how about
0:22
100 times three
0:23
that's three hundred good place to start Jack's
0:26
100 sneezes times three clones is 300 clue

and
0:31
since multiplication is just adding the same number over and over it is
0:36
you betcha
0:38
so
0:38
101 times 3 is just 300 plus 3
0:43
300

and 102 times three
0:47
is three more than that
