Multiplication: what is times tables

Published by admin on 2024年4月12日2024年4月12日

Multiplication is an arithmetic operation that involves repeated addition of the same number.

The times tables are a set of multiplication facts that provide quick and easy access to multiples of a given number.

For example, the times table for 5 lists all the multiples of 5 from 1 x 5 = 5 up to 9 x 5 = 45.
Here’s an example of a times table:
|Number| 1| 2| 3| 4| 5| 6| 7| 8| 9|
|—|—|—|—|—|—|—|—|—|—|
|5| 5| 10| 15| 20| 25| 30| 35| 40| 45|

In this example, each row represents a multiple of 5 (the base number), while each column represents the counting numbers from 1 to 9. To find any product in the table, simply locate the row corresponding to the base number and the column corresponding to the multiplier.
