Tricks for the 11 times table

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

Write it twice

From 11 × 1 to 11 × 9, just write the digit twice.

11 × 7 = 77

Split the digits

For 11 × a two-digit number, add the two digits and put the total in the middle.

11 × 13 → 1 (1 + 3) 3 = 143

Use the table before

Know the 10 times table? Add one more lot: 11 × 7 is 10 × 7 plus 7.

70 + 7 = 77

The last digits repeat

Look at the last digit of each answer from 11 × 1 to 11 × 10. The same pattern repeats for the next ten answers, so learn it once.

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0

Turn it around

11 × 3 is the same as 3 × 11. If you know the 3 times table, you already know this fact, and the same goes for every table you have learned.

3 × 11 = 11 × 3 = 33

Count in 11s

Each answer is 11 more than the one before, so you can always count on from a fact you know.

11, 22, 33, 44, 55

Worked examples

How each answer is found, step by step.

11 × 6

Write 6 twice: 11 × 6 = 66.

11 × 6 = 66

7 × 11

The order does not matter: 7 × 11 is the same as 11 × 7. Write 7 twice: 11 × 7 = 77.

7 × 11 = 77

11 × 12

Work out 10 × 12 = 120, then add one more 12: 120 + 12 = 132.

11 × 12 = 120 + 12 = 132

11 × 17

Work out 10 × 17 = 170, then add one more 17: 170 + 17 = 187.

11 × 17 = 170 + 17 = 187

88 ÷ 11

Ask how many 11s make 88. You know 11 × 8 = 88, so the answer is 8.

88 ÷ 11 = 8

11 × ? = 154

Ask how many 11s make 154. Divide to find it: 154 ÷ 11 = 14.

11 × 14 = 154
