The Addition Table:
Multiplication
The Zero Multiplication Facts
Multiplication is repeated addition so:
0 x 3 = 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
0 x 7 = 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 + 0 = 0
Because of the commutative property of multiplication:
0 x 4 = 4 x 0 = 0
0 x 9 = 9 x 0 = 0
Any number times zero is always zero!
The Ones Multiplication Facts
Multiplication is repeated addition so:
1 x 4 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4
1 x 2 = 1 + 1 = 2
1 x 5 = 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5
3 x 1 = 3
9 x 1 = 9
Because of the commutative property of multiplication:
1 x 4 = 4 x 1 = 4
1 x 8 = 8 x 1 = 8
Any number times one is always itself!
The Twos Multiplication Facts
Multiplication is repeated addition so:
2 x 4 = 4 + 4 = 8 (or 2 fours)
2 x 3 = 3 + 3 = 6 (or 2 threes)
2 x 5 = 5 + 5 = 10 (or 2 fives)
Because of the commutative property of multiplication:
4 x 2 = 2 x 4 = 8
8 x 2 = 2 x 8 = 16
Any number times two is the number doubled!
2 x 7 would be 7 + 7 or 14
6 x 2 would be 6 + 6 or 12
The Fours Multiplication Facts
Double-double the number you are multiplying four by. (Double it twice)
4 x 3 (Double 3 twice)
3 doubled is 6, 6 doubled is 12
4 x 6 (Double 6 twice)
6 doubled is 12, 12 doubled is 24)
Another way to figure the answer is double the answer you would get if you multiplied the number by 2.
4 x 3 (Double the 2 x 3 answer)
The answer to 3 x 2 = 6
Double the 6 to get 12
4 x 6 (Double the 2 x 6 answer)
The answer to 2 x 6 = 12
Double the 12 to get 24
The Fives Muliplication Facts
If you can count by fives, method 1 makes the fives simple
3 x 5 would be 3 fives. Count by five to the third number. 5, 10, 15 (The answer is 15, because the third number, when you count by fives, is 15)
6 x 5 would be 6 fives. Count by fives to the sixth number. 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30 (The answer is 30.)
Because of the commutative property of multiplication:
5 x 3 = 3 x 5 = 15
5 x 6 = 6 x 5 = 30
The Nines Muliplication Facts
This is the one less = nine method
Subtract one from the number you are multiplying by. 9 x 5 (One less than 5 is 4)
The first number in the answer is 4. The two numbers that make up the answer will equal 9. So 4 + __ = 9 (5)
The last number in the answer is 5.
9 x 5 = 45
One less than 5 is 4 (45)
The answer adds up to nine. 4 + 5 = 9
Here is another example:
9 x 8
One less than 8 is 7. So the first number in the answer is 7.
7 + 2 equals 9. So the second number in the answer is 2.
Another Nines Method
Hold your hands in front of you with your fingers spread out.
For 9 X 3 bend your third finger down. (9 X 4 would be the fourth finger etc.)
You have 2 fingers in front of the bent finger and 7 after the bent finger
Thus the answer must be 27
This technique works for the 9 times tables up to 10.
Rhymes
Here are some rhymes that will help you remember some of the remaining times tables.
8 x 8 = 64
He ate and he ate and he sticks in the door, eight times eight is sixty-four.
Eight times eight fell on the floor, picked it up it's sixty four.
6 x 6 = 36
Six times six equals thirty six (It rhymes)
Chicks, Chicks, dirty chicks - six times six is thirty six.
