9 Times Table

Two tricks make the 9 times table easy: 9 × 6 is 10 × 6 minus 6, which is 54, and the digits of every answer add up to 9 (5 + 4). The tens digit is always one less than the number you multiply by.

All facts of the 9 times table

Read the table aloud once, then cover the answers and say them from memory.

  • 9 × 1 = 9
  • 9 × 2 = 18
  • 9 × 3 = 27
  • 9 × 4 = 36
  • 9 × 5 = 45
  • 9 × 6 = 54
  • 9 × 7 = 63
  • 9 × 8 = 72
  • 9 × 9 = 81
  • 9 × 10 = 90

How to remember it

Times 9 is times 10 minus one group: 9 × 7 = 70 − 7 = 63. The digits of the answer add up to 9.

How to solve this

  • The ×9 table has a neat pattern: the digit sum of every result is 9 (e.g. 63: 6+3=9).
  • Quick method: 9 × n = (10 × n) − n — multiply by 10 and subtract the number once.
  • Also notice the tens and ones digits: as tens go 0→9, ones go 9→0.

Examples

9 × 4 = ?

36

__ × 9 = 63

7

9 + 9 + 9 = ?
