Master the 3 times table with retrieval-first drills and mixed recall practice.

Build 3× fluency for faster multiplication and inverse division confidence.

Curriculum focus: secure recall of 3× facts and connected division facts.

3 times table

All facts from 3×1 to 3×12.

3 × 1 = 3
3 × 2 = 6
3 × 3 = 9
3 × 4 = 12
3 × 5 = 15
3 × 6 = 18
3 × 7 = 21
3 × 8 = 24
3 × 9 = 27
3 × 10 = 30
3 × 11 = 33
3 × 12 = 36

What to practise

  • Use short timed sets followed by untimed explanation rounds.
  • Interleave known and weak facts to improve retention.
  • Re-check weak facts after 24 hours and 7 days.

Teaching tips

  • Link multiplication facts to inverse division questions.
  • Track accuracy before increasing speed demands.
  • Mix this table with neighbouring tables to prevent cue dependence.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do we improve times-table recall?

Use frequent retrieval in short sessions with immediate correction.

Should we practise only one table?

Use focused table practice first, then mixed-table sessions for transfer.
