Multiplication Table

A multiplication table makes it easier for you to perform operations. I strongly recommend that you learn it and know it by heart.


x 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
1 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
2 0 2 4 6 8 10 12 14 16 18 20 22 24
3 0 3 6 9 12 15 18 21 24 27 30 33 36
4 0 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 40 44 48
5 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50 55 60
6 0 6 12 18 24 30 36 42 48 54 60 66 72
7 0 7 14 21 28 35 42 49 56 63 70 77 84
8 0 8 16 24 32 40 48 56 64 72 80 88 96
9 0 9 18 27 36 45 54 63 72 81 90 99 108
10 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100 110 120


The multiplication table contain some interesting patterns that can help you remember some of those multiplications

First,notice that any number times 0 will give 0.

2 times 0 = 0

5 times 0 = 0

Any number times 1 will give the number

6 times 1 = 6

9 times 1 = 9

When you multiply any number( the number must be between 1 and 12; It may not be true for other higher numbers) by 9, the sum of the digits for the answer add up to 9.

For instance,

9 times 3 = 27 and 2+7 is 9

9 times 7 = 63 and 6 + 3= 9

See if you can find other interesting patterns that will help you remember the multiplication table!
