Master the easiest times tables: 2s and 5s

What You'll Learn

  • Memorize 2s times table (2 through 2 × 10)
  • Memorize 5s times table (5 through 5 × 10)
  • Recognize patterns in 2s and 5s

📖The 2s Pattern

All 2s answers are even numbers. 2 × 1 = 2, 2 × 2 = 4, 2 × 3 = 6... The answers go: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20.

📖The 5s Pattern

All 5s answers end in 0 or 5. 5 × 1 = 5, 5 × 2 = 10, 5 × 3 = 15... The answers go: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50.

💡

For 5s, think of counting nickels! Each nickel is worth 5 cents.

📖Commutative Property

Order does not matter in multiplication! 3 × 5 = 5 × 3 = 15. This is called the commutative property.
