Multiplication Facts 0-10 — Answer Key
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. 8 × 6 = 48.
Thinking of the missing factor as 48 ÷ 6, you get 8 because eight 6s — 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48 — reach 48.
2. 5 × 7 = 35.
Counting by 5s — 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 — takes seven jumps to reach 35, so the missing factor is 7.
3. 9 × 9 = 81.
Use the trick 9 × 9 = (10 × 9) − 9 = 90 − 9 = 81, the largest fact in the times table for 9.
4. 6 × 7 = 42.
Find the missing factor with division: 42 ÷ 7 = 6, since six 7s give 42.
5. 10 × 8 = 80.
Multiplying by 10 just adds a zero to the other factor, so 10 × 8 becomes 80.
6. 3 × 8 = 24.
Ask yourself: how many 3s make 24? Skip-count by 3s and you reach 24 on the eighth jump.
7. 7 × 9 = 63.
Use the 9s trick: subtract 1 from 7 to get the tens digit (6), then 9 − 6 = 3 for the ones digit, giving 63.
8. 5 × 4 = 20.
Five 4s — 4, 8, 12, 16, 20 — equal 20, so the missing factor is 5.
9. 6 × 5 = 30.
Six fives are like six nickels — counting by 5 six times gives 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.
7 × 7
→ 49
54
9 × 3
→ 27
32
8 × 4
→ 32
27
6 × 9
→ 54
49
Each pairing comes from a known fact: the square of 7 is 49, three 9s make 27, four 8s make 32, and six 9s make 54.
