The multiplication table is a great tool for exploring number patterns and relationships. Students used a multiplication table in Chapter 6 to learn multiplication facts.
Multiplication tables are also useful for showing division concepts and fact families.
Look at the multiplication table below. The numbers along the left side and top are factors. The numbers inside are products. To use the multiplication table to find the product of 3 and 9, locate 3 in the first column and then find 9 in the top row. Follow the 3 row to where it meets the 9 column.
