Multiplication chart
printable

A multiplication chart puts times-table facts in a grid. The numbers across the top are one set of factors, and the numbers down the left are the other. Find the row and column you need: the square where they meet gives the answer.

For example, follow row 7 across to column 8. Their intersection is 56, so 7 × 8 = 56. Reading row 8 and column 7 gives the same answer. You can use the chart as a reference, or choose a blank worksheet to practice recalling the products.

Choose a chart that matches your practice

• 1–10: 100 products, from 1 × 1 through 10 × 10. A compact choice for learning the first ten times tables.
• 1–12: 144 products, extending the chart through 12 × 12 = 144.
• 1–20: 400 products, with two-digit factors and answers up to 400. This version has smaller squares to keep the chart on one printed page.

Every PDF uses portrait orientation and fits one chart to a single page. A blank worksheet with its answer key produces two pages, so you can keep the answers separate while practicing. Both US Letter (8.5 × 11 inches) and A4 (210 × 297 mm) are available.

Use a focused highlight

Select a factor to shade its row and column. Highlighting 6 draws attention to 6, 12, 18, 24, and the rest of the six times table. The numbers remain legible without color, so the chart also works on a black-and-white printer.

Start with rows you can explain

The 1 row repeats the column numbers. The 2 row is double each column number. The 5 row ends in 5 or 0, and the 10 row ends in 0. These patterns give you a way to check an answer rather than memorizing a disconnected list.

Build harder facts from easier ones

To find 7 × 8, split seven groups into five groups and two groups: 5 × 8 = 40 and 2 × 8 = 16. Add them to get 56. You can see the same relationship by comparing rows 5, 2, and 7 in the chart.

Look along the diagonal

The diagonal from the upper-left product to the lower-right contains squares: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, and so on. Each square multiplies a number by itself. The other products mirror across this diagonal because changing the order of multiplication does not change the answer.

Use the blank chart in short rounds

Fill one row first, then check it against the answer key. If you miss a fact, explain it using a nearby fact you know. For example, 9 × 6 is one group of 6 less than 10 × 6, so 60 − 6 = 54. Repeat the troublesome row later instead of filling the entire chart in a rush.

Multiplication can also check division. If 8 × 7 = 56, then 56 ÷ 8 = 7. Try the calculator with remainder when a division does not work out evenly. For a different number pattern, the Pythagorean theorem calculator shows how squared lengths relate in a right triangle.
