6 times table
The 6 times table is the 3 times table doubled, with a neat pattern hiding in the even answers.

How to learn the 6 times table
Triple, then double
6 is 2 × 3, so multiply by 3 and double the result. For 6 × 7, three sevens are 21 and double 21 is 42. If your 5 times table is stronger, use that: 6 × 7 is 5 × 7 plus one more 7, which is 35 + 7 = 42.
The even-number pattern
When 6 multiplies an even number, the answer ends in that same number: 6 × 2 = 12, 6 × 4 = 24, 6 × 6 = 36, 6 × 8 = 48. The tens digit is half of the number you started with, so 6 × 8 has 4 tens and 8 ones.
Checking an answer
Every answer is even, and its digits add up to a multiple of 3. Take 54: it is even, and 5 + 4 = 9. A number that fails either test, such as 56 or 45, cannot be in the 6 times table.
Facts worth a second look
- 6 × 7 = 42Three sevens are 21; double it. Or 35 + 7.
- 6 × 8 = 48Ends in 8, with half of 8 in the tens place.
- 6 × 9 = 546 × 10 = 60, minus one 6.
- 6 × 12 = 7260 and 12. Half a gross.

Questions about the 6 times table
What is 6 × 7?
42. Three sevens make 21, and double 21 is 42. It is a fact plenty of people hesitate on, so it is worth having a method for it.
How do you check if a number is in the 6 times table?
It has to pass two tests: it must be even, and its digits must add up to a multiple of 3. 114 passes both, since 1 + 1 + 4 = 6, and 114 = 6 × 19.
