Quick Quiz: 6 Times Table

Test your recall with 5 quick practice questions.

Question 1 of 5
Solve the equation
What is 3 × 6?

Connect 6s to 3s and Doubles

Multiplying by 6 is the same as multiplying by 3 and then doubling the answer. If a child knows 3 x 8 = 24, they can double 24 to solve 6 x 8 = 48.

Simple Practice Plan for 6s

Begin with the filled chart, then drill five mixed facts at a time instead of always going in order. Short mixed practice helps students answer 6 x 7 or 6 x 9 without relying only on skip-counting.

Using the Blank Worksheet

Have the student fill in the empty chart from memory, check against the filled version, and circle any mistakes. Repeating the same blank sheet later shows which facts are becoming automatic.
