Tips for learning the tables

• Learn one table at a time, a few minutes every day.
• The order does not change the answer: 3 × 7 = 7 × 3.
• The 4 times table is double the 2 times table; for 9, subtract the number once from the 10 times table.
• Check with the chart, then practise on the sheet with the answers hidden.

Multiplication examples

• 3 × 7 = 21: three groups of 7 make 21.
• 9 × 6 = 60 − 6 = 54: take one 6 away from the 10 times table.
• 0 × 8 = 0: zero groups of 8 make zero.

Common mistakes

• Multiplying is not adding the two numbers: 3 × 7 is 21, not 10.
• Every answer in the 0 times table is 0; in the 1 times table, the answer stays the same.
• For the 9 times table, the digits in an answer add to a multiple of 9: 5 + 4 = 9 in 54 and 9 + 9 = 18 in 99.
