Recall multiplication facts

Multiplication-fact knowledge includes accurate, efficient recall of products for whole-number factors from 0 through 12, including the special roles of 0 and 1 and the commutative relationships that reduce the number of facts to learn. These facts support interpreting arrays and equal groups, relating multiplication to corresponding division facts, and computing with larger whole numbers, fractions, and measurement quantities. This scope does not include memorizing products with larger factors or applying multiplication to decimals, variables, or generalized algebraic rules.

Detailed Explanation: Recall multiplication facts

Multiplication facts are products you can recall quickly for factors from 00 through (12)(12).

  • Any number multiplied by 00 equals 00: (9×0=0)(9 \times 0=0).
  • Any number multiplied by 11 equals that number: (6×1=6)(6 \times 1=6).
  • You can switch the order of the factors without changing the product: (8×7=7×8)(8 \times 7=7 \times 8).

Example: Find (8×7)(8 \times 7).

  1. Look at the two factors: 88 and 77.
  2. Turn the fact around if the other order is easier to remember:
8×7=7×8 8 \times 7=7 \times 8
  1. Recall the product of 77 and 88:
7×8=56 7 \times 8=56
  1. Therefore,
8×7=56 \boxed{8 \times 7=56}

Say the fact and product together: “Eight times seven is fifty-six.”
