The document describes two methods for performing calculations based on a given number. The first method involves subtracting the number from 50, then 25, squaring the first result and concatenating it with the second. The second method adds the ones digit to 25, squares the ones digit and concatenates it with the first result. Examples are provided to illustrate each method.

2. Step 1
Subtract the number
from 50.
Step 2
Subtract the result (from
Step 1) from 25.
Step 3
Square the result from
Step 1 (if the result is a
single digit, put a 0 in
front of it)
Step 4
Place the result from Step
3 next to the result from
Step 2.
3. EXAMPLE #
01:
482
Step 1. Subtract the number from 50.
50 48 = 2
Step 2. Subtract the result (from Step 1) from 25.
25 2 = 23
Step 3. Square the result from Step 1 (if the result
is a single digit, put a 0 in front of it)
22 = 04
Step 4.Place the result from Step 3 next to the
result from Step 2.
23_04 = 2304
Answer: 482 = 2304
4. EXAMPLE #
02: 422
Step 1. Subtract the number from 50.
50 42 = 8
Step 2. Subtract the result (from Step 1) from 25.
25 8 = 17
Step 3. Square the result from Step 1 (if the result
is a single digit, put a 0 in front of it)
82 = 64
Step 4.Place the result from Step 3 next to the
result from Step 2.
17_64 = 1764
Answer: 422 = 1764
9. Step 1
Add the ones digit to
25.
Step 2
Square the ones digit (if
the result is a single digit,
put a 0 in front of it)
Step 3
Place the result from Step
2 next to the result from
Step 1.
10. EXAMPLE #
01:
532
Step 1. Add the ones digit to 25.
25 + 3 = 28
Step 2. Square the ones digit (if the result is a
single digit, put a 0 in front of it)
32 = 09
Step 3. Place the result from Step 2 next to the
result from Step 1.
28_09 = 2809
Answer: 532 = 2809
11. EXAMPLE #
01:
582
Step 1. Add the ones digit to 25.
25 + 8 = 33
Step 2. Square the ones digit (if the result is a
single digit, put a 0 in front of it)
82 = 64
Step 3. Place the result from Step 2 next to the
result from Step 1.
33_64 = 3364
Answer: 582 = 3364
