What is a multiplication table of 3?

Let’s understand the pattern and facts that Table of 3 holds and how we can learn to use in the application.
Table of 3 a list with a structure that consists of multiples of 3, helps the learner calculate the sums of 3.


The pattern followed throughout the table is repeated addition of 3 and keeps increasing as 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 3o, and so on.


The digits at the one’s place of the product of the table of 3 are in order of 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, and 0 repeats while multiplying further.

Tips and tricks for the multiplication table of 3

Learning mathematical tables is a fundamental math skill and helps solve problems. Here are some tips and tricks to easily learn the table of 3.

 

  • The table of 3 has a pattern; understanding the pattern makes it easy to learn the table. The pattern is 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, and 0 these digits are repeated throughout the table of 3 after 10 multiples.

 

  • While writing the table of 3 you can write in a way that would make it easy. When you multiply by 4, 5, and 6 the digits in the tens place are 1. When multiplied by 7, 8, and 9, the digits in the tens place are 2 and when multiplied by 11, 12, and 13, the digits in the tens place are 3. This pattern follows further and keeps on increasing in the ten’s place.

 

  • The digits of the products of the multiplication table of 3 when added together mostly give the sum of 3, 6, and 9. Example 3 x 7 = 21 (2 + 1 =3), 3 x 5 = 15 (1 + 5 = 6), 3 x 9 = 27 (2 + 7 = 9).

 

 

  • The table of 8 can also be practiced using the skip counting method, by counting 3’s, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and so on.

 

The tips and tricks above will help you in the 3 times table. The common mistakes and the solved examples show where to look out for and how to solve problems with the table of 3.
