✔ Solutions to All Problems
Here’s the completed grid with answers:
| 3 x 5 = 15 | 3 x 9 = 27 | 3 x 4 = 12 | 3 x 0 = 0 | 3 x 6 = 18 | 3 x 8 = 24 |
|------------|------------|------------|-----------|------------|------------|
| 3 x 4 = 12 | 3 x 10 = 30 | 3 x 7 = 21 | 3 x 1 = 3 | 3 x 5 = 15 | 3 x 2 = 6 |
| 3 x 12 = 36 | 3 x 9 = 27 | 3 x 7 = 21 | 3 x 11 = 33 | 3 x 4 = 12 | 3 x 3 = 9 |
| 3 x 8 = 24 | 3 x 3 = 9 | 3 x 5 = 15 | 3 x 10 = 30 | 3 x 9 = 27 | 3 x 6 = 18 |
| 3 x 7 = 21 | 3 x 3 = 9 | 3 x 2 = 6 | 3 x 12 = 36 | 3 x 6 = 18 | 3 x 8 = 24 |

📌 Explanation of How to Solve Each Problem
To multiply any number by 3, you can:
- Add the number three times (e.g., 3 × 4 = 4 + 4 + 4 = 12)
- Use known multiplication facts (e.g., 3 × 6 = 18)
For example:
- 3 × 0 = 0 → Any number times zero is zero.
- 3 × 1 = 3 → Any number times one is itself.
- 3 × 5 = 15 → You can think: 3 × 5 = 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 15

💡 Tips for Learning Multiplication by 3s
-
Pattern Recognition: The products of 3s go: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36 — they increase by 3 each time.
-
Use Skip Counting: Count by 3s: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, ...
-
Double and Add: For 3 × 4, think: double 4 = 8, then add 4 → 8 + 4 = 12.

✔ Final Answer Summary
All the problems have been solved using basic multiplication rules. Here’s a quick reference table for multiplying 3 by numbers 0–12:
| 3 × 0 = 0 | 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 |
This worksheet helps reinforce memorization of the
3 times table, which is a foundational skill in arithmetic.
