![]() So, today we’re going to look at short times tables, removing all the multiplications that repeat and, therefore, the ones we don’t need to learn: 1Īs you can see, there are fewer multiplications to learn than it seems… In this table you can find any of the complete times tables, look: You can read about the properties of multiplication in this post if you don’t remember! This happens because of the commutative property of multiplication: the order of the factors doesn’t change the result of the product. If we already know that 1 x 2 = 2, we don’t need to learn that 2 x 1 = 2 because we already know it ! Have you noticed that the numbers repeat across all the times tables?įor example, the 1 times table contains 1 x 2, which is the same as 2 x 1, and this appears in the 2 times table. ![]() In today’s post we’re going to review our times tables, while at the same time learning a trick to make them shorter.īefore we start, you can review the times tables if you need to by clicking this link.
