Consider your Calculator

7 8 9

4 5 6

1 2 3





Step 1 : Add the numbers vertically
741 + 147 + 852 + 258 + 963 + 369 = 3330

Step 2 : Add the numbers horizontally
789 +987 + 654 + 456 + 321 + 123 = 3330

Pretty cool huh ?

Final trick:

Step 1 : Add numbers diagonally

159 + 951 = 1110

357 + 753 = 1110

And just for good measure 1110 * 3 = 3330.
