Building on Multiplication Facts
Skip count from facts y o u k n o w to calculate
other multiplication facts.
1. 5 x 5 = 25. Use this fact t o calculates x 5.
8 x 5 = 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5
5 x 5 = 25
so 8 x 5 equals 5 x 5 plus 3 more 5s
8X5=
25 + 5 + 5 + 5 = HO
You can use facts you k n o w t o
help you calculate other
multiplication facts. For
example:
I w a n t t o k n o w t h e answer t o
7X4=
.
I k n o w t h a t 5 X 4 = 20.
2. Use one fact t o help you complete the other fact. 7 x 4 = 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4
Show your w o r k .
5 x 4 = 20
t
a) 2 X 7 = 14, so 3 X 7 =
H + 7 = 21
b) 5 X 5 = 25, so 6 x 5 =
25 + 5 = 30
c) 8 X 3 = 24, so 9 X 3 =
2^ + 3 = 27
d) 4 X 8 = 32, so 5 X 8 =
32 + S = HO
e) 8 X 5 = 40, so 9 x 5 =
HO + 5 = H5
f)
36 + 6 = H2
6 X 6 = 36, so 7 X 6 =
g) 7 X 4 = 28, so 9 X 4 =
28 + H + H = 36
h) 7 X 7 = 49, so 9 X 7 =
H3 + 7 + 7 = 63
So 7 x 4 equals 5 x 4 plus 2
more 4s.
7 X 4 = 20+ 4 + 4
7 X 4 = 28
3. Write a multiplication fact t h a t will help you calculate 5 x 7 .

I can double the product t o
calculate 5 x 8 .
