I wrote this a bit ago and am not sure if I used the actual answer my grandfather put on my son's homework, or if I fat fingered the calculation when I typed up the post. Both are equally likely I'm afraid. Either way, I will see if I can't go back and correct the post to read 8,960 for the sake of clarity. Thanks professor Nivens.

I'm a mathematics education professor and I'll probably share this blog with my students who will be student teaching in the spring. Thanks for the post, I googled "sevens and nines" and that's how I landed here. So why did your grandpa multiply 128*71?
