Why wouldn't you just take 1 from 7, add it to 9, and make it 10 + 6? That makes a lot more sense to my brain at least.

Because making shit equal, be in perfect balance or even symmetric makes my dopamine go 🥳.

Finding the correct answer that way is a neat side effect too.

Multiplying by two is a similar cognitive exercise to adding 10 in small numbers (for me) so it would really depend on which occured to me first.
