To multiply a whole number by 10, write a zero on the end. 7 tens are 70. The digits slide one place to the left and a zero fills the gap.

Seven ways to practise

Work through the activities from left to right. Each one asks a little more of you, and a tick appears when you finish it. Your progress is saved on this device.

Tricks for the 10 times table

Pick the trick that clicks for you. Each one is a different way to the same answer.

Add a zero

Take the number you are multiplying and write a 0 after it. That is the whole trick for whole numbers.

10 × 4 = 40

Why the zero appears

Multiplying by 10 moves every digit one place to the left: ones become tens, tens become hundreds. The empty ones place gets a zero.

10 × 23 = 230

Halve it for the 5s

Five is half of ten, so any answer in the 5 times table is half the 10 times answer.

10 × 8 = 80, so 5 × 8 = 40

Take one away for the 9s

Nine lots is ten lots minus one lot. Work out the 10s answer, then subtract the number.

10 × 7 − 7 = 63

Add one more for the 11s

Eleven lots is ten lots plus one lot. Work out the 10s answer, then add the number.

10 × 7 + 7 = 77

Double the 5s

10 is double 5, so work out the 5 times table answer and double it.

5 × 7 = 35, so 10 × 7 = 70

Worked examples

How each answer is found, step by step.

10 × 6

6 tens are 60. The digits slide one place to the left and a zero fills the gap.

10 × 6 = 60

7 × 10

The order does not matter: 7 × 10 is the same as 10 × 7. 7 tens are 70. The digits slide one place to the left and a zero fills the gap.

7 × 10 = 70

10 × 12

12 tens are 120. The digits slide one place to the left and a zero fills the gap.

10 × 12 = 120

10 × 17

17 tens are 170. The digits slide one place to the left and a zero fills the gap.

10 × 17 = 170

80 ÷ 10

Ask how many 10s make 80. You know 10 × 8 = 80, so the answer is 8.

80 ÷ 10 = 8

10 × ? = 140

Ask how many 10s make 140. Divide to find it: 140 ÷ 10 = 14.

10 × 14 = 140

Test yourself: 10 questions with answers

Say each answer out loud before you open it. If you get all ten, try the 60-second test above.

1. What is 10 × 8?
80. Eight lots of 10.
2. What number times 10 makes 50?
5. 50 ÷ 10 = 5.
3. Is 10 × 11 = 111?
No, it is 110. 10 × 10 = 100 is a good place to start, then add one more 10.
4. How many 10s are there in 90?
9. 9 × 10 = 90.
5. What is 10 × 0?
0. No groups of 10 is nothing at all.
6. What is 10 × 15?
150. Ten lots of 10 plus five lots of 10.
7. What is 130 ÷ 10?
13. 10 × 13 = 130.
8. Which is bigger: 10 × 9 or 9 × 11?
9 × 11 = 99. It is bigger than 10 × 9 = 90 by exactly 9.
9. What comes next: 60, 70, 80, …?
90. Counting in 10s, each step adds 10.
10. If 10 × k = 160, what is k?
