The 6 Times Table

Everything you need to learn the 6 times table, from 6 × 1 = 6 to 6 × 12 = 72.

The 6 times table connects to tables your child may already know: the 3s (double them), the 5s (add one more group) and the 12s (halve them).

6 × 7 = (5 × 7) + 7 = 35 + 7 = 42.

3 × 9 = 27, so 6 × 9 = 54. Every 6 times answer is double the matching 3 times answer.

Multiply 6 by an even number and the answer ends in that same digit: 6 × 2 = 12, 6 × 4 = 24, 6 × 6 = 36, 6 × 8 = 48.

6 × 7 = 42, 6 × 8 = 48 and 6 × 9 = 54 cause the most trouble. The “even numbers echo” pattern takes care of 6 × 8.
