About this worksheet

Counting in threes (3, 6, 9, 12 …) first, then the facts out of order. The 3s are the first table with no doubling shortcut. The digits of every answer add up to 3, 6 or 9 (3 × 8 = 24 → 2 + 4 = 6). The facts most children find hardest: 3 × 7, 3 × 8 and 3 × 9 — just past the counting range most children hold in their head.

The 3 times table is taught in Year 3. Once it is secure, switch the question type to "3 × __ = 18" for the related division facts, or tick the other tables of the year group for a mixed sheet. Fifty and 100-question versions are a click away.
