Multiplication Table

Q: Which times tables should you learn first?

Start with the 1s, 2s, 5s and 10s, which follow simple patterns. Then learn the 3s and 4s, then the 9s and 11s with their tricks, and finally the 6s, 7s, 8s and 12s.

Q: How many facts are in a 12 × 12 multiplication table?

There are 144 cells, but because 3 × 4 is the same as 4 × 3, there are only 78 different facts to learn. Leave out the 1s and 10s, which are easy, and fewer than 50 remain.

Q: What is the trick for the 9 times table?

The digits of each answer up to 9 × 10 add up to 9, and the tens digit is one less than the number you multiply by. So 9 × 7 starts with 6, and 6 + 3 = 9 gives 63. You can also hold up 10 fingers and fold down the 7th: 6 fingers to the left, 3 to the right.

Q: Can I print the multiplication table?

Yes. Press the Print button above the chart to print just the table on one page. Choose 10 × 10, 12 × 12, 15 × 15 or 20 × 20 first, and switch on practice mode if you want a blank grid to fill in.

A multiplication table lists the products of every pair of numbers from 1 to 12. Find one number along the top and the other down the side; the answer is where the row and column cross. Hover over the chart to light up a row and column, switch on practice mode to hide the answers, or print it for the fridge or the classroom.

Patterns

Patterns That Make It Easier

You don't have to memorize 144 separate facts. These patterns cover most of the chart.

Order Doesn't Matter

3 × 4 = 4 × 3, so the chart is a mirror image across its diagonal. Learn one half and you know the other: 78 facts, not 144.

6 × 8 = 8 × 6=48

2s Are Doubles

Times 2 is the number added to itself. Times 4 is double, then double again. Times 8 is three doubles.

8 × 7: 14, 28, 56=56

5s End in 0 or 5

Times 5 is half of times 10. An even number times 5 ends in 0; an odd one ends in 5.

5 × 8 = 80 ÷ 2=40

9s Add Up to 9

The tens digit is one less than the number, and the two digits add to 9. Or: times 10, then take one away.

9 × 7 = 70 − 7=63

11s Repeat the Digit

Up to 9, times 11 writes the digit twice. 11 × 12 is 120 + 12.

11 × 7=77

Squares on the Diagonal

The diagonal from top left holds 1, 4, 9, 16, 25… Tick "Highlight square numbers" above to see them.

7 × 7=49

Learning Order

Learn Them in This Order

Each stage builds on the one before, so the hard facts shrink to a handful.

1s, 2s, 5s and 10s

Counting patterns most children already know. This covers more than a third of the chart.
3s, 4s, 9s and 11s

4s are double the 2s; 9s and 11s have their own tricks. 3s come from skip counting.
6s, 7s, 8s and 12s

By now most of these are already known from other tables. The few left, like 6 × 7, 6 × 8, 7 × 8 and 7 × 12, are worth extra practice.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you read a multiplication table?

Find one number in the top row and the other in the left column; the answer is where they meet. For 7 × 8, go across row 7 to column 8: the cell says 56.

Which times tables should you learn first?

Start with the 1s, 2s, 5s and 10s, which follow simple patterns. Then the 3s and 4s, the 9s and 11s with their tricks, and finally the 6s, 7s, 8s and 12s.

How many facts are in a 12 × 12 multiplication table?

144 cells, but only 78 different facts, because 3 × 4 is the same as 4 × 3. Leave out the easy 1s and 10s and fewer than 50 remain.

What is the trick for the 9 times table?

The digits of each answer add up to 9, and the tens digit is one less than the number you multiply by. So 9 × 7 starts with 6, and 6 + 3 = 9 gives 63. Or fold down your 7th finger: 6 fingers on the left, 3 on the right.

Can I print the multiplication table?

Yes. Press Print above the chart to print just the table on one page. Pick the size first, and switch on practice mode for a blank grid to fill in.
