Knowing the multiplication ‘tables by heart’ is ESSENTIAL to all successful mental and written arithmetic. Being able to work out 7x5 by adding up is not the same as recalling instantly that the answer is 35. This app sets out to help beginners memorise these multiplication facts for the x2, x5 and x10 tables in a fun way. A further app is available when you are ready for the remaining multiplication facts up to x10 and an extended edition includes the 11 and 12 times tables as well.

The app incorporates the popular ‘Explore Multiples’ page by way of introduction. It is a place to play with multiples and to observe patterns in the ‘100 square’ of numbers.

Following that, each table is presented on two screens. The first screen is where you learn to complete the facts correctly from a pool of answers using drag-and-drop. You can choose to have the facts presented in order, or jumbled, or indeed you can answer them in reverse (‘if this is the answer, what is the question?’). The second screen gives you an endless sequence of random flashcards to answer in either ‘play’ or ‘test’ mode. In play mode, the app assists you to learn by repeating any questions with which you had difficulty earlier.

The test mode of the second screen is the challenge. Can you get your average time to answer each flashcard question down to 2 seconds or less?

The last screen of this app is one where you can either play or test yourself on the 2, 5 and 10 times tables together. In test mode, you are given a twenty question test in which all flashcard questions are picked at random. This app, together with its companion apps covering the other tables, is the ideal way of perfecting your knowledge of the multiplication facts.
