⁦A studio for Ukrainian grade 3⁩ (НУШ ⁦textbooks, part 2⁩, «⁦rational ways of calculating⁩»). ⁦The book shows that multiplying by 25 can go through 100⁩: ⁦a · 25 = a · 100 : 4⁩. ⁦And dividing by 25⁩: ⁦a : 25 = a · 4 : 100⁩.

⁦Multiplying by 5 and 50 goes through 10 and 100 and halving⁩: ⁦a · 5 = a · 10 : 2, a · 50 = a · 100 : 2⁩. ⁦Multiplying by 11 and 101 uses addition⁩: ⁦a · 11 = a · 10 + a, a · 101 = a · 100 + a⁩. ⁦Multiplying by 9 and 99 uses subtraction⁩: ⁦a · 9 = a · 10 − a, a · 99 = a · 100 − a⁩.

⁦In each task build such a line from the cards and find the result⁩. ⁦Multiplying by 25 is handier with numbers divisible by 4, and by 5 with even numbers⁩.

The «why?» ⁦question asks why the method works⁩.
