Short answer
The 8 times table is 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96. Each answer is 8 more than the one before it, so you can also find the table by skip counting by 8. 8 × 6: double 6 is 12, double 12 is 24, double 24 is 48. Three doubles give every 8 times fact.

Patterns that make the 8 times table easier
Double three times
8 × 6: double 6 is 12, double 12 is 24, double 24 is 48. Three doubles give every 8 times fact.
The last digits count down in twos
8, 16, 24, 32, 40: the last digits are 8, 6, 4, 2, 0. Then the pattern starts again with 48, 56, 64, 72, 80.
Double the 4 times table
8 × 7 is double 4 × 7: double 28 is 56.

Questions and answers
What is the 8 times table?
The 8 times table is the list of answers you get when you multiply 8 by 1, 2, 3 and so on. Up to 12 it is 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, 96.
What is 8 times 12?
8 × 12 = 96. Some schools teach each table up to 10 and others up to 12, so it is worth learning both 8 × 11 = 88 and 8 × 12 = 96.
How do you skip count by 8?
Start at 8 and add 8 each time: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80. Skip counting by 8 gives the same numbers as the 8 times table.
Which facts in the 8 times table should I practice most?
Children usually need the most practice with the facts that have larger numbers, such as 8 × 7 = 56, 8 × 12 = 96, 8 × 8 = 64. Practice a few at a time, mixed with facts the child already knows.
How is the 8 times table used for division?
Every multiplication fact gives two division facts. Because 8 × 6 = 48, you also know 48 ÷ 8 = 6 and 48 ÷ 6 = 8.
