How to Use a Multiplication Table — Free Interactive Tool (2026)
By Rui Barreira · Last updated: 18 June 2026
Use the free interactive Brevio Multiplication Table to explore the 12×12 times table or practice with a built-in quiz mode — no sign-up needed.
How to Use the Multiplication Table
- Open the tool in Table View to see the full 12×12 grid.
- Click any cell to highlight its entire row and column, making it easy to trace which two numbers produce that product.
- Click the highlighted cell again to deselect it.
- Switch to Quiz Mode to practice — a random multiplication question appears and you type the answer.
- Track your streak: consecutive correct answers build your streak counter.
How to Read a Multiplication Table
Find the first number along the top row and the second number along the left column. Follow the column down and the row across — where they intersect is the product. For example, to find 7 × 8, find 7 in the top row and 8 in the left column; the cell where they meet shows 56.
Tips for Memorizing Times Tables
Start with the easy patterns: the 1× table (any number times 1 is itself), the 2× table (double the number), the 5× table (ends in 0 or 5), and the 10× table (add a zero). The 9× table has a pattern: digits always sum to 9 (9×2=18, 1+8=9; 9×7=63, 6+3=9). Once you know the commutative property (3×7 = 7×3), you only need to memorize about half the table. Use quiz mode for the combinations you find hardest.
