What is the 12 times table?

1 × 12 = 12, 2 × 12 = 24, 3 × 12 = 36, 4 × 12 = 48, 5 × 12 = 60, 6 × 12 = 72, 7 × 12 = 84, 8 × 12 = 96, 9 × 12 = 108, 10 × 12 = 120, 11 × 12 = 132, 12 × 12 = 144.

What is the trick for the 12 times table?

This one is ours, not from our book: 12 is 10 and 2. So 7 × 12 is 7 × 10 and 7 × 2, which is 70 and 14, and that makes 84. It works for every row, and both halves come from tables a child already knows.

Why is there no dragon and no game for the 12 times table?

Our cube game and the voice that reads the tables were made for the tables from 2 to 11, the ten in our book. The 12s have this plain page, with a chart, a wheel and a worksheet to print. There is no dragon for 12. Yet.

Do children have to learn the 12 times table?

That depends on the school. England's national curriculum has Year 4 pupils "recall multiplication and division facts for multiplication tables up to 12 × 12", so there the 12s are part of the job. In the United States the Common Core standards say: "By the end of Grade 3, know from memory all products of two one-digit numbers", which stops at 9 × 9. Not every state uses those standards, so ask your child's teacher. (Both documents read on 2 October 2026.)

12 × 12 = 144. With our tip that is 120 and 24. It is the last square on a multiplication chart that goes to 12.

The 12 times table

Twelve rows, from 1 × 12 to 12 × 12. There is no dragon for 12. Yet.

Our game, its voice and its ten dragons cover the tables from 2 to 11. The 12s get this quiet page: the multiplication table of 12, one tip, and three sheets to print.

Twelve rows this time, because a table of 12 that stopped at 10 would leave out its own best answer: 12 × 12 = 144.

The tables before this one

The 12s come last

We learn the tables in this order, and each of the first ten has a dragon to set free. Before the 12s comes the 11 times table. See all ten dragons, make a worksheet of the 12s with fresh sums, or fill in a wheel.
