Part A: In order Multiply. Look for the pattern as you go.

8 × 1 = 8
8 × 2 = 16
8 × 3 = 24
8 × 4 = 32
8 × 5 = 40
8 × 6 = 48
8 × 7 = 56
8 × 8 = 64
8 × 9 = 72
8 × 10 = 80
8 × 11 = 88
8 × 12 = 96

Part B: Mixed up Multiply. The facts are out of order and some are flipped.

8 × 8 = 64
8 × 12 = 96
9 × 8 = 72
8 × 3 = 24
4 × 8 = 32
5 × 8 = 40
8 × 0 = 0
2 × 8 = 16
8 × 2 = 16
8 × 5 = 40
7 × 8 = 56
8 × 9 = 72

Part C: Missing factor Write the number that makes each fact true.

8 × 8 = 64
8 × 10 = 80
8 × 2 = 16
8 × 7 = 56
8 × 3 = 24
8 × 5 = 40

Tips for teachers and parents

Double, double, double. For 8 × 6: double 6 is 12, double 12 is 24, and double 24 is 48.
Use 10 groups minus 2 groups: 8 × 7 is 70 − 14 = 56.
The last digits of the answers go 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and then repeat. Students can use this to check any answer.
Every 8s answer is a 4s answer doubled: 4 × 9 = 36, so 8 × 9 = 72.

Common mistakes

Doubling only twice, which gives the 4s answer. An answer like 8 × 6 = 24 is the sign. Count the three doubles on three fingers.
Mixing up 8 × 7 = 56 and 8 × 6 = 48. Use the last-digit cycle to check which one fits.

What to practice next

Try the 9 times table, which has the clearest pattern of the larger tables, then the mixed review.
