Short answer
The 5 times table is 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60. Each answer is 5 more than the one before it, so you can also find the table by skip counting by 5. 5 times an odd number ends in 5 (5 × 7 = 35). 5 times an even number ends in 0 (5 × 8 = 40).

Skip counting by 5
Start at 5 and add 5 each time. Saying the numbers out loud, forwards and then backwards, is a quick way to learn the table.

Patterns that make the 5 times table easier
Answers end in 5 or 0
5 times an odd number ends in 5 (5 × 7 = 35). 5 times an even number ends in 0 (5 × 8 = 40).
Half of ten times
5 × 8 is half of 10 × 8: half of 80 is 40. This is useful for bigger numbers too.
It matches the clock
The minutes on a clock face go up in fives: 5, 10, 15, 20. Reading the minute hand is practice for this table.

Questions and answers
What is the 5 times table?
The 5 times table is the list of answers you get when you multiply 5 by 1, 2, 3 and so on. Up to 12 it is 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60.
What is 5 times 12?
5 × 12 = 60. Some schools teach each table up to 10 and others up to 12, so it is worth learning both 5 × 11 = 55 and 5 × 12 = 60.
How do you skip count by 5?
Start at 5 and add 5 each time: 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50. Skip counting by 5 gives the same numbers as the 5 times table.
Which facts in the 5 times table should I practice most?
Children usually need the most practice with the facts that have larger numbers, such as 5 × 7 = 35, 5 × 8 = 40, 5 × 5 = 25. Practice a few at a time, mixed with facts the child already knows.
How is the 5 times table used for division?
Every multiplication fact gives two division facts. Because 5 × 6 = 30, you also know 30 ÷ 5 = 6 and 30 ÷ 6 = 5.
