The 11 times table

The 11 times tables has an interesting trick that can help you remember it.

The number you are multiplying repeats itself in the tens and ones in the answer! For example:

6 × 11 = 66

But what happens when you multiply 11 by 10, 11 or 12?

10 × 11 = 110

11 × 11 = 121

12 × 11 = 132

Can you see a pattern in the answers here?

The numbers that you multiply by 11 seems to separate into the hundreds and the ones columns, with a new digit in the tens.

How do you know what the digit in the tens column will be?

You add the digits in the hundreds and ones column together!
