Fun way of multiplication

Fun way of multiplication
Place your fingers as in the below image and number the fingers from 1 to 10.

Example
Consider the multiplication of 4 × 9.
Step 1:
Here 4 is to be multiplied by 9.
So, fold the 4th finger and count the ones before the folded finger.
Number of fingers before the folded finger = 3 fingers
Multiply the number by 10, = 3 × 10 = 30 -----> (1)
(as shown in the below figure)

Step 2:
Count the fingers after the folded finger = 6 -----> (2)
(as shown in the below figure)

Step 3:
Add (1) and (2),
= 30 + 6 = 36
Therefore the solution to our problem 4 × 9 = 36 is easily found using the above trick.
Note:
If there is no finger below/above the considered (folded) finger, then consider the value as zero (0).
Play the same for the below multiplications
1 × 9 = ?
2 × 9 = ?
3 × 9 = ?
4 × 9 = ?
5 × 9 = ?
6 × 9 = ?
7 × 9 = ?
8 × 9 = ?
9 × 9 = ?
10 × 9 = ?
