7 times table: chart, patterns and practice

Short answer

The 7 times table is 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, 84. Each answer is 7 more than the one before it, so you can also find the table by skip counting by 7. 7 × 2 is the same as 2 × 7, 7 × 3 is the same as 3 × 7, and so on. A child who knows the 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10 and 11 times tables has only four facts left to learn here: 7 × 7, 7 × 8, 7 × 9 and 7 × 12.

Skip counting by 7

Start at 7 and add 7 each time. Saying the numbers out loud, forwards and then backwards, is a quick way to learn the table.

Patterns that make the 7 times table easier

  • Most of it is already known

    7 × 2 is the same as 2 × 7, 7 × 3 is the same as 3 × 7, and so on. A child who knows the 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10 and 11 times tables has only four facts left to learn here: 7 × 7, 7 × 8, 7 × 9 and 7 × 12.

  • 5, 6, 7, 8

    56 = 7 × 8. Say the digits in order, five six seven eight, to remember one of the hardest facts.

  • Five times plus two times

    7 × 6 is 5 × 6 plus 2 × 6: 30 + 12 = 42. Splitting 7 into 5 and 2 works for any fact in this table.

Questions and answers

What is the 7 times table?

The 7 times table is the list of answers you get when you multiply 7 by 1, 2, 3 and so on. Up to 12 it is 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, 84.

What is 7 times 12?

7 × 12 = 84. Some schools teach each table up to 10 and others up to 12, so it is worth learning both 7 × 11 = 77 and 7 × 12 = 84.

How do you skip count by 7?

Start at 7 and add 7 each time: 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70. Skip counting by 7 gives the same numbers as the 7 times table.

Which facts in the 7 times table should I practice most?

Children usually need the most practice with the facts that have larger numbers, such as 7 × 8 = 56, 7 × 12 = 84, 7 × 7 = 49. Practice a few at a time, mixed with facts the child already knows.

How is the 7 times table used for division?

Every multiplication fact gives two division facts. Because 7 × 6 = 42, you also know 42 ÷ 7 = 6 and 42 ÷ 6 = 7.
