5. One’s Pattern 1 times any number is the same number
1 x 3 = 3
1 x 7 = 7
1 x 4 = 4

8. Nine’s Pattern - Step 1 Subtract 1 from number you are multiplying
9 x 3 = 2
9 x 7 = 6
9 x 8 = 7
9 x 1 = 0
9 x 2 = 1
9 x 6 = 5

9. Nine’s Pattern - Step 2 Add a 2nd number that totals nine with the 1st number
9 x 3 = 2
9 x 7 = 6
9 x 8 = 7
9 x 1 = 0
9 x 2 = 1
9 x 6 = 5 7 + 9 = 3 + 9 = 2 9 + = 9 9 + = 8 9 + = 4 + 9 =
