Ten questions, no clock. A wrong answer shows the spots.
The practice needs JavaScript. The whole table and its trick are below.
The whole 7 times table
- 1 × 7 = 7
- 2 × 7 = 14
- 3 × 7 = 21
- 4 × 7 = 28
- 5 × 7 = 35
- 6 × 7 = 42
- 7 × 7 = 49
- 8 × 7 = 56
- 9 × 7 = 63
- 10 × 7 = 70
The trick: turn it around
The 7 times table looks hard, but most of it is already known from other tables, because 3 × 7 is the same as 7 × 3. Learned last, only 7 × 7 = 49 is new.
- 3 × 7 is the same as 7 × 3.
- So most of ×7 is in other tables.
- Only 7 × 7 = 49 is new!
The ones to watch
These are the 7 times table facts children miss most often: 4 × 7, 6 × 7, 8 × 7, 9 × 7. Give them a little extra practice.
