The 10 Times Table — Free UK Practice, Chart & Quiz

The 10 times table chart

All twelve facts, laid out the way children see them in class. Read the grid, then scroll to the quiz and try them in a random order — random recall is the format the Multiplication Tables Check uses, and the format that builds real fluency.

Skip counting in 10s

Counting up in 10s is how most UK classrooms introduce the table. Say it out loud, twice a day, for the first two days:

10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120

Skip counting gets a child to the answer, but slowly — they have to count from the start. It's a stepping stone, not the destination. Move to random recall within two or three days.

Printable 10 times table list

Copy this list onto a card for the fridge or the back of a bedroom door. Children who see a table in passing, ten times a day, learn it faster than children who only meet it during practice.

• 1 × 10 = 10
• 2 × 10 = 20
• 3 × 10 = 30
• 4 × 10 = 40
• 5 × 10 = 50
• 6 × 10 = 60
• 7 × 10 = 70
• 8 × 10 = 80
• 9 × 10 = 90
• 10 × 10 = 100
• 11 × 10 = 110
• 12 × 10 = 120

Tricks for the 10× table

Add a zero. That's it.

The division facts that come free

Every multiplication fact is also a division fact. A child who knows 6 × 10 = 60 should also answer 60 ÷ 10 straight away — and UK schools test both. Practise them as a pair from day one rather than treating division as a separate topic later:

• 30 ÷ 10 = 3
• 60 ÷ 10 = 6
• 90 ÷ 10 = 9
• 120 ÷ 10 = 12

Missing-number questions matter too: 10 × ? = 70. This is the format children stumble on most in Year 4 and beyond.

When UK children learn the 10 times table

The 10× table is introduced in Year 4 of the National Curriculum. By the end of Year 4 every state-school pupil sits the Multiplication Tables Check on all tables to 12×12, so a child fluent in the 10× table by the summer of Year 4 is on track.

The facts children miss most

None — 10× is the easiest table. If your child's practice is weighted toward the specific facts they're slowest on, they'll clear the 10× table faster than by grinding every fact equally.

A 7-day plan for the 10× table

1. Day 1 — see the pattern. Read the full 10 times table grid above out loud. Say the skip-counting sequence twice. No timing, no pressure.
2. Day 2 — untimed recall. 10 minutes of random-order recall on the 10× table. Untimed. Note nothing yet.
3. Day 3 — first timing. 10 minutes at 10 seconds per fact. Write down the two facts your child is slowest on.
4. Day 4 — target the slow facts. 5 minutes on those two facts alone, then 5 minutes on the whole table.
5. Day 5 — squeeze the clock. 10 minutes at 8 seconds per fact. Speed, not new content.
6. Day 6 — mix it in. 10 minutes mixing the 10× table with two tables your child already knows. Mixing is what makes recall durable.
7. Day 7 — MTC-format run. A full run at 6 seconds per question, the Multiplication Tables Check pace. Celebrate, then move on to the next table.

Practise the 10 times table free

MathStar's Soundcheck lets kids drill just the 10× table, or mix it with tables they already know. The app tracks which facts they're slowest on and quietly revisits them. Free on the App Store, no school code needed.

Every times table, 1 to 12

Tables build on each other — 4× leans on 2×, 8× leans on 4×, 12× leans on 10× and 2×. Work through them in curriculum order rather than jumping around.
