Multiplication Patterns You Can Memorize in 10 Minutes

You don’t need to memorize everything—just a few patterns.

Squares: 6×6, 7×7, 8×8, 9×9 are used constantly. Make them instant.

×9 trick: 9×7 = 10×7 − 7. Same for 9×13 = 130 − 13 = 117.

Doubling: 8×7 is double 4×7. If you know 4×7=28, then 8×7=56.

• Learn squares first (6–12)
• Use 9×n = 10×n − n
• Use doubling (×2, ×4, ×8)
