Grade 3 fact practice and later review

Common Core 3.OA.C.7 sets an end-of-Grade-3 goal to multiply and divide fluently within 100 and recall products of two one-digit numbers. Questions with 10, 11, or 12 as a factor go beyond the one-digit recall requirement.

Which facts are new

If the tables before 3 are already known, 3 × 1 through 3 × 2 were practiced in the other order. The 10 new facts run from 3 × 3 through 3 × 12: 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, and 3 × 12 = 36.

Patterns in the answers

The ones digits of the answers run 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0, and then that sequence repeats. The cycle is 10 steps long, so the last digit alone is not a shortcut. The digit sum is the check that belongs here: the digits of 3 × 8 = 24 add as 2 + 4 = 6, a multiple of 3.

Division facts from the 3 times table

The quotient is how many steps of 3 make the dividend. The digits of each dividend add to a multiple of 3. For 24 ÷ 3 = 8, 2 + 4 = 6. That sum can reject a wrong dividend, but it does not by itself prove the quotient.

  • 3 ÷ 3 = 1
  • 6 ÷ 3 = 2
  • 9 ÷ 3 = 3
  • 12 ÷ 3 = 4
  • 15 ÷ 3 = 5
  • 18 ÷ 3 = 6
  • 21 ÷ 3 = 7
  • 24 ÷ 3 = 8
  • 27 ÷ 3 = 9
  • 30 ÷ 3 = 10
  • 33 ÷ 3 = 11
  • 36 ÷ 3 = 12

The same facts are grouped by divisor on the division chart.

Tips for learning the 3s

Count by threes to find a missing fact: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15. The answers also have a useful check: when you add their digits, the total is a multiple of 3. For example, 3 × 8 is 24, and 2 + 4 is 6. This check can catch some mistakes, but it does not prove an answer is right, since other numbers can also have that pattern. Let the learner say a fact, find it on the chart, and then write it without looking. If 3 × 7 is hard, start at 3 × 6 = 18 and add one more group of 3.

How to use this worksheet

  1. Print the prepared 12-question sheet or choose 24 or 36 questions.
  2. Let the learner work without the chart, then check against the separate answer key.
  3. Try a new sheet when they are ready, or change the selected times tables for mixed practice.
