About this practice

Each problem multiplies 3 by a number from 1 to 12.

You’ll practice all 12 problems from 3 × 1 through 3 × 12, with answers from 3 to 36.

Three groups are two groups plus one more.

3 Times Table Facts

  • 3 × 1 = 3
  • 3 × 2 = 6
  • 3 × 3 = 9
  • 3 × 4 = 12
  • 3 × 5 = 15
  • 3 × 6 = 18
  • 3 × 7 = 21
  • 3 × 8 = 24
  • 3 × 9 = 27
  • 3 × 10 = 30
  • 3 × 11 = 33
  • 3 × 12 = 36

Typical level: Grade 3 and beyondThe U.S. Common Core expects Grade 3 students to know products of two one-digit numbers from memory. This practice continues through ×12. Curriculum timing varies.

Double it, then add one more group

3 × 8

= 2 × 8 + 1 × 8

Split 3 into 2 and 1.

= 16 + 8

2 × 8 = 16 and 1 × 8 = 8.

= 24
8 in each group 2 groups 2 × 8 = 16 1 group 1 × 8 = 8

Doubling twice gives the 4s, not the 3s. Add just one more group. This builds on the 2 Times Table.
