Explanation:
This is a straightforward multiplication drill focusing on the
8 times table. To solve each problem, you multiply the given number by 8.
Here are some tips and patterns that can help with the 8 times table:
*
Double, Double, Double: To multiply any number by 8, you can double it, then double the result, and double it again.
* Example: 6 × 8
* Double 6 → 12
* Double 12 → 24
* Double 24 → 48
* So, 6 × 8 = 48
*
Pattern in the Ones Place: If you list the products of 8 × 1 through 8 × 10, you'll see a pattern in the ones digit: 8, 6, 4, 2, 0, 8, 6, 4, 2, 0. This repeating pattern can help you check your work.
*
Memorization: For quick recall, it's helpful to memorize the 8 times table:
* 8 × 1 = 8
* 8 × 2 = 16
* 8 × 3 = 24
* 8 × 4 = 32
* 8 × 5 = 40
* 8 × 6 = 48
* 8 × 7 = 56
* 8 × 8 = 64
* 8 × 9 = 72
* 8 × 10 = 80
* 8 × 11 = 88
* 8 × 12 = 96
By applying these methods or using direct recall, you can quickly solve each of the 20 problems on the worksheet.
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of multiplication by 8 worksheets.
