Algorithm: lattice multiplication

A

Algorithm for solving multiplication. Draw a lattice with diagonals in each box right one factor across the top and one along the right side multiply each number and write the answer in the box with the tens digit on top add the diagonals beginning in the bottom right corner if the sum is greater than 10 move the one to the next diagonal the answer will be along the left side and bottom
