It is very simple method 72519 * 9999.

72519 * 9000 = 652671000,
72519 * 900 = 65267100,
72519 * 90 = 6526710,
72519 * 9 = 652671.

Then 652671000 + 65267100 + 6526710 + 652671 = 725117481.

The easiest method can be:

72519 x 9999.

If the multiplier is series of 9 (i. e. 9, 99, 999. ) then,

Add every digit in the given answer (i.e. 7 + 2 + 5 + 1 + 1 + 7 + 4 + 8 + 1 = 36, add the answer again, i.e. 3 + 6 = 9).

And if the final answer is 9 then that number itself answers.
