1. How To Use MrV’s Times Table For Multiplication
Table Terminology
Multiplying Two 1-Digit Numbers
Longer 1-Digit Multiplications: How to do “Carrying”
Multiplication by a 2-Digit Number
Handling Trailing Zeroes in Multiplication
Handling Internal Zeroes in Multiplication

2. Table Terminology: Row, Cell, Factor, Product
There are 9 table Rows, Row 1 through Row 9
Each Cell holds 3 numbers: The Product (big number)
and its 2 Factors
For example, this is Row 5: 5 6
In this Cell, the Product is 30 and the Factors are 5 and 6.
Each Row has 10 Cells, Cell 0 thru Cell 9.
For example, this is Cell 6 in Row 5.

3. 7 • 8=? 56 Multiplying Two 1-digit Numbers
7 • 8
1. Find the Row for the first Factor
In this case, it’s Row 7:
3. The big number above them is their Product
7 times 8 is 56 56
2. Look across the Row until you see both Factors on the bottom
In this case, it’s 7 times 8

4. Ok, let’s try a few: Click when you find the Product
7 • 9=
7 • 9
9 • 4= 24
9 • 4 30
5 • 6=
5 • 6 63
3 • 8=
3 • 8 36

5. 4 • 582 = ? Longer 1-Digit Multiplications: How to do “Carrying”
In this case, 4 is the multiplier.
Leave some space on the top. We will use MrV’s Row 4:
4 • 582 = ?
If necessary, rewrite the numbers in Vertical Format:
Use the shorter number as multiplier. Neatness will improve accuracy.
multiplicand
ᵡ multiplier
product
Starting from the right, x 2 is 8
(move the 8 to the product)
4 x 8 is 32
(move the 2 to the product and carry the 3 to over the 5)
4 x 5 is 20, +3 is 23
(move the 23 to the product)

6. First, we’ll need Row 5: 5x7 then 5x7 then 5x5 then 5x9
Next, we’ll need Row 3: 3x7 then 3x7 then 3x5 then 3x9

7. Now, we’ll only need Row 7: 7x4 then 7x7 then 7x2

8. If you need to, use Rows 9 and 2 from MrV’s Multiplication Table
