PRACTICE FROM JUST 10 PROBLEMS In Practice, choose a number to learn and a range to multiply it by, and start with as few as 10 problems. It begins with 3 × 10–19. Go after your weak numbers and ranges as often as you like. CONQUER EVERY NUMBER FROM 1 TO 99 In Challenge, take on 90 problems: your chosen number times every two-digit number from 10 to 99. Solve them all to clear it, and work toward clearing all 99. SEE YOURSELF IMPROVE Every finished run records your time and adds it to a line chart. A line sloping downward is your progress.
