Quantities such as £ 3. 5s. 8d. or 5 ft 7 in. are called compound quantities because, in each case, more than one unit of measurement is involved. Multiplication of such quantities by any number greater than 12 is generally rather long and cumbersome if carried out by the direct method. The methods explained in this chapter provide shorter ways of arriving at the solution.
