Multiplication Table Visualiser
See any times table from 1 to 50 in colour, spot its patterns, skip-count on a 100 grid, practise with hidden answers and print a neat chart with your name.
A multiplication table lists the multiples of a number, because n × 7 means n groups of 7: 4 × 7 = 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 28. The table of 7 runs 7, 14, 21, 28, 35 … Since a × b = b × a, a full 10 × 10 table holds only 55 different facts.
Choose a table
Any whole number from 1 to 50.
Table of 7
Each bar is made of equal blocks — one block for every 7 added. Tap a row to explore that fact.
Fact explorer
Four ways to see the same fact.
Patterns & tricks
Spotting patterns makes a table much easier to remember.
Skip counting on a 1–100 grid
Multiples of 7 light up. Compare with another table to find common multiples.
Hops on the number line
Multiplication is repeated jumping:
Practise the table of 7
Type each answer — it is checked as soon as you finish typing.
Multiplication square
Hover or tap any cell — its row and column light up. Tap to hear the fact.
Learn tables by seeing them, not just reciting
Colours, grids and patterns turn a list of facts into something children can picture — and remember.
Pick a number
Type any number from 1 to 50 or tap a quick-pick button, then choose × 10, × 12 or × 20.
Explore the patterns
Read the colour-coded table, tap a row for the fact explorer and check the last-digit star.
Skip-count and compare
Watch the multiples light up on the 100 grid and find common multiples with another table.
Practise and print
Hide the answers and test yourself, then print a chart with your name for your study table.
Multiplication is repeated addition
4 × 3 = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12
“4 × 3” means 4 groups of 3. Arrange them as 4 rows of 3 dots and you get an array — turn it sideways and it becomes 3 rows of 4, which is why 4 × 3 = 3 × 4.
Patterns that halve the work
- Order property: a × b = b × a, so a 10 × 10 table has only 55 different facts.
- Doubling: the 4 table is the 2 table doubled; the 8 table is the 4 table doubled.
- Last digits: the 5 table always ends in 5 or 0; the 2 table ends in 2, 4, 6, 8, 0.
The 9 times finger trick
Hold up all 10 fingers. To find 9 × 4, fold down the 4th finger. There are 3 fingers to its left (tens) and 6 to its right (ones), so 9 × 4 = 36.
It works because 9 × k = 10 × k − k, so the tens digit is k − 1 and the digits always add up to 9.
Reading a multiplication square
Find one number along the top and the other down the side — the answer is where the row and column meet. The diagonal holds the square numbers 1, 4, 9, 16, 25 … and the chart is a mirror image on either side of it.
Multiplication Table Visualiser — your questions
How do I learn the table of 7 quickly?
Build it from facts you already know. 7 × 5 = 35, so 7 × 6 = 35 + 7 = 42. Use the swap rule, because 7 × 8 is the same as 8 × 7, and split the big ones: 7 × 12 = 7 × 10 + 7 × 2 = 70 + 14 = 84. That leaves only 7 × 6, 7 × 7, 7 × 8 and 7 × 9 to drill.
What is the 9 times table finger trick?
Hold up all ten fingers. To find 9 × 4, fold down the fourth finger: three fingers stand to its left (the tens) and six to its right (the ones), so the answer is 36. It works because 9 × k = 10 × k − k, which makes the tens digit k − 1 and the two digits always add up to 9.
How many multiplication facts are in a 10 × 10 table?
The grid has 100 cells, but because a × b = b × a only 55 of them are different facts. Learn 2, 5 and 10 first, get 4 and 8 by doubling, then 3, 6 and 9, and the table of 7 is almost the only one left. That is why a chart feels far smaller once the order property is understood.
Which tables should a child learn first?
Start with 2, 5 and 10, because their patterns can be heard: the 5 table ends in 5 or 0 and the 10 table always ends in 0. Then take 4 and 8 by doubling the 2 and 4 tables, then 3, 6 and 9, and finish with 7. Ten minutes of mixed practice a day works better than one long session.
Can I print a multiplication chart for free?
Yes. Print chart prints the table you are viewing, and the Square chart tab prints a complete 1–12 or 1–20 multiplication square with the square numbers marked on the diagonal. Add a student name first so it is ready for a study table, or use Download PNG to save the same chart as an image.
How do I find common multiples of two tables?
Open Skip counting, then choose a second table in the “Compare with” box. Numbers that belong to both tables are highlighted in both colours. For 4 and 6 these are 12, 24, 36 and 48, so 12 is their lowest common multiple — the first number that appears in both tables.
