Using a multiplication table, kids can learn multiplication more effectively. Students can easily learn the multiplication table by practicing regularly. Tools like worksheet, flash cards, timetables, easy tricks are used to make learning easier for children. Let's check all the multiplication tables from 1 to 100.
The basics of math include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. For doing multiplication and division, one must be aware of multiplication tables. It is very important to have a strong foundation in multiplication.
Learning basic multiplication tables makes it easier to do bigger multiplication. When kids memorize multiplication tables, it makes it easy for them to do mental math.
Begin your journey into Multiplication Tables by exploring key concepts. Understand important multiplication table topics in detail by selecting from the list below:
Multiplication is a part of basic math skills, so it is significant to learn multiplication tables. To learn tables faster, follow the tips and tricks mentioned below.
For example, let's take a look at the multiplication table of 2.
Multiplication | Addition |
---|---|
2 × 1 = 2 | 2 = 2 |
2 × 2 = 4 | 2 + 2 = 4 |
2 × 3 = 6 | 2 + 2 + 2 = 6 |
2 × 4 = 8 | 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 8 |
2 × 5 = 10 | 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 10 |
2 × 6 = 12 | 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 12 |
The same repeated addition can be followed in all the tables.
For example, 10 × 5 = 50 can be calculated as 1 × 5 = 5, and if we add a 0, it gives the result of 50.
For example, 5 × 3 = 15, 3 × 5 = 15.
25 × 5 = 125
It can be split into,
(20 × 5) + (5 × 5)
= 100 + 25 = 125.
While learning multiplication tables, students make errors. Students tend to make the same mistakes, mostly. So let’s check out some common mistakes and ways to avoid them. To master multiplication tables, try to avoid these common mistakes.
A multiplication chart is a chart that displays the product of two numbers. The numbers are listed in the first column and row. The result is written in the corresponding grid. Times table charts make it easy for students to learn multiplication tables.
Multiplication charts are one of the best ways to practice math tables. It is the multiplication grid, consisting of the numbers and their products. Let’s check how to use a multiplication chart.
Step 1: First locate the numbers, from the first row and column.
Step 2: Find the grid where the row and column intersect.
The times table chart from 1 to 12 consists of the product from 1 to 12 in a grid format. The numbers from 1 to 12 are written in the first row and first column. Each intersecting grid has the product of the numbers.
Multiplication tables play a major role in our daily lives. We can see some real-world applications.
When cooking, the quantity of ingredients is sometimes scaled according to the portions required. This is a classic example of the usage of multiplication in real life. For example, measuring ingredients according to the quantity.
We use multiplication while calculating expenses. For example, while shopping, multiplication is used to calculate the interest, returns, daily expenses, etc.
We use it for traveling, construction, planning events, and so on.
Multiplication tables play a major role in our daily lives. We can see some real-world applications.
Find the product of 15 × 36 Using split method
(15 × 30) + (15 × 6) = 540
In this split method, the number is broken down as per the place value. Here 36 can be written as 30 + 6 which can be multiplied by 15 separately. Here, the distributive property is used for easy calculation. 15 is once multiplied by 30 and then by 6 respectively and the product is added. Here, (15 × 30) + (15 × 6) = 540.
The cost of 1 kg of apples is 50 rupees. Then what would be the cost for 5 kg?
The cost for 5 kg of apples is 250 rupees.
The cost of 5 kg of apples = the cost of 1 kg × 5
= 50 × 5 = 250 Rupees
Fill the patterns a- 2, 4, 6, _, 10, 12. b- 5, 10, 15, _, 25.
The patterns are
2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12
5, 10, 15, 20, 25
The patterns are the multiplication table of 2 and 5 respectively. So, to fill the blank, adding 2 and 5 respectively with the previous number is required.
If a person works for 1 hr, he can earn 90 points. If the working hours are 8, then how much can he earn in a day?
The points the person can earn in 8 hrs are 720
total points earned = points earned in an hour × number of hours
= 90 × 8 = 720
The cost of one dress is 359 Rupees, calculate the cost for 6 dresses.
The cost of 6 dresses is 2154 Rps.
Multiply the cost of one dress (359) with the total dresses (6), to find the total cost of the dresses.
359 cost of a dress x 6 total dresses = 2154 Rps.
For learning multiplication tables, kids need to do multiplication practice. Here, printable multiplication tables and worksheets can help.
Let’s have some multiplication table exercises to check your understanding.
