About these multiplication facts worksheets

By the end of grade 3, children are expected to know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers (Common Core 3.OA.C.7). These worksheets cover every fact from 0 × 0 to 10 × 10, mixed up rather than table by table, so children practice recalling any fact. For one table at a time, see the times tables worksheets.

What is on this page

• Fact practice: 30 vertical facts, plus a set that leaves out the easy 0, 1 and 10 facts.
• Horizontal facts and missing factors: 6 × ☐ = 42 makes children think about the facts in both directions, which also prepares them for division.
• Fact families: 6, 7 and 42 make two multiplication and two division facts.
• Games: a caterpillar path, a color-by-product picture, a riddle, match-up cards and bingo.
• Story problems about bags, rows and packs.

Tips for learning the facts

• Learn the easy facts first: × 0, × 1, × 2, × 5 and × 10.
• Use the order rule: if you know 3 × 8, you know 8 × 3. That halves the facts to learn.
• Use known facts: 6 × 7 is 5 × 7 plus one more 7, so 35 + 7 = 42.
• Practice a little every day and time only one short sheet at a time.

Multiplication facts to 100 worksheets: what is in the set

There are 11 multiplication facts to 100 worksheets on this page, and every one has an answer key except for any cut-out games. The sheets are fact drills, missing factors and fact families, plus a caterpillar, a color-by-product picture, a riddle, match-up cards, bingo and story problems.

Multiplication facts to 100: how many facts are there?

Multiplication facts to 100 look like a lot to learn, but the order rule and the easy facts cut the number down. The times table from 0 × 0 to 10 × 10 has 121 facts when each order is counted, but only 66 different facts, since 3 × 8 and 8 × 3 are the same. This table shows how the numbers change as the easy facts are taken away:

The facts that need real practice are the 36 different facts in the 2 to 9 table, and only 10 of those are among the hardest, with both factors from 6 to 9. Wikipedia’s article on multiplication describes the history of the times table. The multiplication arrays and equal groups page shows the arrays that give the facts their meaning.

Multiplication facts worksheets: the easy, middle and hard facts

The multiplication facts worksheets include a sheet that leaves out 0, 1 and 10, since these facts are the easy ones. Among the other 64 facts, some are easier than others. This table splits them into three groups:

Only 10 different facts have both factors from 6 to 9, and they are 6 × 6, 6 × 7, 6 × 8, 6 × 9, 7 × 7, 7 × 8, 7 × 9, 8 × 8, 8 × 9 and 9 × 9. If a child knows all the facts except these, practicing them one at a time is a much smaller job than learning the whole table. This table gives a helper fact for each of the six that have two different factors:

Multiplication facts 0-10: a strategy for each table

For multiplication facts 0-10, there is a strategy for each table. Some facts are best known by heart, but a strategy gives a child something to fall back on when memory fails. This table shows one strategy for each table from 0 to 10, with an example:

Each strategy builds on a fact that the child already knows. For 6 × 7 the helper is 5 × 7 = 35, and one more 7 makes 42. The times tables worksheets page has the tables one at a time.

Basic multiplication worksheets: patterns in the table

The basic multiplication worksheets are easier when children look for patterns. The 9s have the best of them: the digits of every product add up to 9, and the tens digit is one less than the number that 9 is multiplied by. This table shows the ten facts:

Other patterns are that all multiples of 5 end in 0 or 5, the 2s are all even, and the 10s all end in 0. In the table of products, the numbers on the diagonal are the squares: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81 and 100. The diagram above shows the whole table with the easy, middle and hard facts.

Multiplication drills: how long should they take?

Multiplication drills should be short and often. A drill that takes more than three minutes is too long, since children tire and make mistakes. This table shows how long to allow for sheets of different lengths, if children take 3, 4 or 5 seconds a fact:

A good aim is 9 right out of 10 before moving on, and children should be timed only against their own earlier score. The riddle, the caterpillar, the color-by-product picture and the bingo games on this page make practice more fun, so that drills are not the only way to learn.

Multiplication worksheets grade 3: fact families

For multiplication worksheets grade 3, the standard 3.OA.C.7 asks children to know all the products of two one-digit numbers from memory by the end of the year, and to link them to division. A fact family is a set of facts that use the same three numbers. This table shows five triangles and their facts:

A square, such as 9, 9 and 81, has only two facts, since the two multiplications are the same. The division facts to 144 and long division worksheets pages use the same triangles in reverse.

Which products come up most often?

In the times table from 1 × 1 to 10 × 10 there are only 42 different products, since many facts have the same answer. Some products come up more often than others. This table shows the eight products that are made by the most facts:

The products 6, 8 and 10 are made by the most facts, and they are among the numbers that children meet in measurement and time. Only 6 of the 42 products appear just once, such as 1, 25, 49, 64, 81.

• Fact family triangles: cover one number in a triangle, and ask for the missing one
• Beat the clock: do a sheet of 30 facts, and try to beat your own time
• Dice facts: roll two dice and multiply, and keep a tally of the products
• Match-up cards: turn over cards to match each fact with its product
• Caterpillar race: solve the facts along the caterpillar, and see who finishes first

Extra support and extra challenge with multiplication facts to 100

For children who need more support: learn one table at a time, and start with the easy ones: × 2, × 5 and × 10. Use skip counting and arrays to find a fact that is forgotten. Practice a few facts each day, and do not time the child until the facts are secure. Keep a list of the facts that need practice, and use the answer key to check.

For children who need more challenge: ask for all the facts that make 24, for the missing factor in 6 × ☐ = 42, and for a fact that is made in two different ways, such as 12. The sheet with only the hard facts, and the sheet with missing factors, are good challenges.

How to tell that a child is ready to move on from multiplication facts to 100
