Summary of how to learn the Multiplication table
Know that `3 times 6` is the same as `6 times 3`
`times 2 =` | Double it | |
`times 3 =` | Treble it | |
`times 4 =` | Double it and double the result | |
`times 5 =` | Multiply by 10 and half it | |
`times 6 =` | Don't need anything but | |
`6xx6=` see multiply by itself mnemonic `=36` | ||
`7xx6=6xx7` which is `6xx6=36` then `36+6=42` | ||
`8xx6=` see mnemonic for this on `6` times table | ||
`times 7 =` | Don't need anything but | |
`7xx7=` see multiply by itself mnemonic `=49` | ||
`8xx7` which is `7xx7=49` then `49+7=56` | ||
`times 8 =` | Don't need anything but | |
`8xx8=` see multiply by itself mnemonic `=64` | ||
`times 9 =` | Use your hands | |
`times 10 =` | Just put a zero on the end | |
`times 11 =` | Repeat the multiplier (up to 9 x 11) | |
`times 12 =` | Multiply by 10 and add double the number | |
See mnemonic pictures in the next section for the following:
`3times3, 4times4, 5times5, 6times6, 7times7, 8times8, 9times9, 10times10, 11times11, 12times12`
