Multiplication facts: 16 problems a sheet, 3 versions that do not repeat each other where the numbers allow.

How to use it

  1. Look at the sheet: it is a real, printable sheet. Switch between Sheet A, B and C, or press New numbers (N) for a fresh set.
  2. Change how many problems, how many versions, and whether the key prints. Settings stay in this browser; Share copies a link that rebuilds the same sheets.
  3. Press Print sheet A and key, or Print all. The answer key prints on its own page, so you can keep it back.

Ideas for class

  • Teach 10 × n minus n as the main strategy and the digit rules as a check, not the other way round.
  • Write the first ten multiples of 9 and ask students what they notice about the ones digits going down and the tens digits going up.
  • Use the finger method as a bridge for students who need a physical help, then fade it as the sheet times improve.

Questions

Do the digits always add to 9?

For 9 × 2 up to 9 × 10, yes: 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81 and 90 all have digits that add to 9. For 9 × 11 and beyond the rule changes, so it is only a check inside the table.

Is the finger method on this sheet?

No, the sheet is only the problems. The finger method is a teaching trick you can use alongside it: hold up ten fingers and put down the one that matches the other factor.

Are the answer keys checked?

Each answer is worked out by the code that wrote the problem, and our tests recompute every answer a second way and compare. Please still look over the key before you grade a class set.

What this worksheet covers

The 9s are full of patterns, and this sheet is a good place to point them out. The digits of every multiple of 9 up to 9 × 10 add up to 9, and the tens digit is one less than the number multiplied: 9 × 4 is 36, with 3 tens and 3 + 6 = 9. Every problem has a 9 in it, with the other factor from 2 to 10 in either order, and there are nine facts.

Who it is for

Third grade, 3.OA.C.7. It is usually the last table to fall into place, because it can be built from the 10s: 9 × n is 10 × n minus n.

The 9 times table, from 9 × 2 to 9 × 10 · grade 3

A worked example

For 9 × 7, take 10 × 7 = 70 and subtract 7 to get 63. Check with the digits: 6 + 3 = 9. Use the finger method too, for fun: put down the seventh finger and read 6 fingers on the left and 3 on the right.

Mistakes to watch for

  • Using the pattern for 9 × 11 or 9 × 12, where the digits no longer add up to 9. Keep the rule to products through 9 × 10.
  • Subtracting from the wrong ten, for example 9 × 6 as 70 − 6. Say it with the numbers: ten sixes, take away one six.
