Quick method to multiply even, one-digit numbers by 6

It's already easy to multiply the numbers 10, 1, and 2 by six, but any number in between is a bit harder to solve. When you are multiplying an even, one-digit number like 8 by 6, the number in the ones place is the number you multiplied by six. In this case, it's 8. Then the number in the tens place is the number in the ones place, divided by 2. In this case, the number in the tens place is 4, giving you an answer of 48. This method only works on even numbers from 2 to 8.
