Remembering Times Tables

6× table
- You can use your doubles to help you remember times tables.
- As the number you are multiplying by doubles, the answer also doubles. For example:
- 1 × 6 = 6
- 2 × 6 = 12

Using times table facts
- You can also use times table facts you already know to support learning the ones you find harder to remember. For example:
- I know that 8 × 6 = 48.
- So I know that I need to subtract 6 to remember that 7 × 6 = 42.

Using times table facts example
- I know that 10 × 6 = 60.
- So I know that 9 × 6 = 54 because I can subtract 6 from 60.
