(20 + 40) + (8 + 7) = 75

I was taught to do it...

my brain breaks it down as:

2 + 4 = 6, add a 0
7 + 8 = 15

60 + 15 = 75

this is probably an artifact from how I learned to multiply, by processing the numbers in each decimal place together and worrying about the 0s afterwards

20 + 40 = 60

8 × 2 = 16. 16 - 1 = 15

60 + 15 = 75

27 + 3 = 30
48 - 3 = 45
