6 × 7
= 5 × 7 + 1 × 7
Split 6 into 5 and 1.
= 35 + 7
5 × 7 = 35 and 1 × 7 = 7.
= 42
Each problem multiplies 6 by a number from 1 to 12.
You’ll practice all 12 problems from 6 × 1 through 6 × 12, with answers from 6 to 72.
A 6s answer is the 5s answer plus one more group.
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.
