In this Discover activity you will investigate patterns in multiplication arrays.

The following table is an example of a simple multiplication array. It can be used to determine the product of any two natural numbers up to 10. For example, to determine the product of 6 and 7, you can look for 6 down the left-hand column and 7 across the top row. You can then find their product by looking at the number in the square where the column and row intersect in the main body of the table. The result is 42.

This is a graphic of a simple multiplication array.
