The 7 times table

  1. 1 × 7 = 7
  2. 2 × 7 = 14
  3. 3 × 7 = 21
  4. 4 × 7 = 28
  5. 5 × 7 = 35
  6. 6 × 7 = 42
  7. 7 × 7 = 49
  8. 8 × 7 = 56
  9. 9 × 7 = 63
  10. 10 × 7 = 70
  11. 11 × 7 = 77
  12. 12 × 7 = 84

Patterns that help

  • Split the 7 into 5 and 2. Seven 6s is five 6s plus two 6s: 7 × 6 is 30 + 12 = 42.
  • 7 × 8 = 56 is just 5, 6, 7, 8 in order: 56 = 7 × 8.
  • 7 × 7 = 49 is a square number, so it sits on the diagonal of the times table square.

Already met: 7 × 2, 7 × 3, 7 × 4, 7 × 5, 7 × 8, 7 × 10. These are in tables learnt before Year 4, just the other way round.

New in this table: 7 × 6, 7 × 7, 7 × 9, 7 × 11, 7 × 12.

Practise the 7 times table

12 questions, mixed up: some multiplying, some missing numbers, some dividing. Nothing is timed. After each one you'll see the answer and a quick way to work it out.

A quick way to every fact

If one won't stick, there's nearly always an easier fact one step away.

  • 7 × 6 = 42 Five 7s plus one more 7: 35 + 7 = 42.
  • 7 × 7 = 49 Five 7s plus two 7s: 35 + 14 = 49.
  • 7 × 9 = 63 Ten 7s minus one 7: 70 − 7 = 63.
  • 7 × 11 = 77 Eleven 7s is the digit twice: 77.
  • 7 × 12 = 84 Ten 7s plus two 7s: 70 + 14 = 84.

Counting in 7s

Saying the answers in order is the first step. Each one is 7 more than the last.

  1. 0
  2. 7
  3. 14
  4. 21
  5. 28
  6. 35
  7. 42
  8. 49
  9. 56
  10. 63
  11. 70
  12. 77
  13. 84

Division facts for free

Every times table fact gives a division fact too. If you know 7 × 6 = 42, you also know 42 ÷ 7 = 6.

  • 7 ÷ 7 = 1
  • 14 ÷ 7 = 2
  • 21 ÷ 7 = 3
  • 28 ÷ 7 = 4
  • 35 ÷ 7 = 5
  • 42 ÷ 7 = 6
  • 49 ÷ 7 = 7
  • 56 ÷ 7 = 8
  • 63 ÷ 7 = 9
  • 70 ÷ 7 = 10
  • 77 ÷ 7 = 11
  • 84 ÷ 7 = 12

Questions parents ask

When do children learn the 7 times table?

In Year 4, under the national curriculum in England. Year 4 finishes the job: by the end of the year children should know every table up to 12 × 12, ready for the multiplication tables check in June.

Is the 7 times table in the Year 4 multiplication tables check?

Yes. 2 to 4 questions in every check: it is one of the five tables the check leans on most. The check has 25 questions, with six seconds to answer each one.

How can I help my child learn the 7 times table?

Start with what your child already knows. 7 × 2, 7 × 3, 7 × 4, 7 × 5, 7 × 8, 7 × 10 are in tables learnt before Year 4, just the other way round, so that leaves 5 new facts. Learn one pattern at a time. Split the 7 into 5 and 2. Seven 6s is five 6s plus two 6s: 7 × 6 is 30 + 12 = 42. Then practise little and often: a set of twelve questions above takes a few minutes, and every answer shows a quick way to work it out.
