There's a mental math "trick" we learned when you want to find 20% or 30% or 40% (etc) of something. What is that "trick"?

• First, find 10% then multiply by how many sets of 10% there are. Ex: 10% of 40 is 4. 30% would be 3 sets of 10, so 4(3) = 12.

• Look like you're thinking really hard and just wait for someone else to give you the answer.

• Put the numbers into the calculator in a random order and hope for the best.

• Consult your horoscope for today's lucky number.
