Multiplication Chart Game

Start with an empty ten-by-ten multiplication chart and fill it in, one fact at a time. A square is highlighted and its fact appears above the chart: type the answer, press Enter, and the square fills with the product. Get it wrong and the square stays empty, marked in amber so you can come back to it.

Because 7 × 8 and 8 × 7 are the same fact, answering one fills both squares, and the chart grows evenly on both sides of the diagonal. That makes the job smaller than it looks: 55 facts rather than 100. The 1s, 2s, 5s and 10s go quickly, and the squares left empty at the end are exactly the ones worth practising.

There is no clock and no way to lose. Tap any empty square to answer that one next, or let the game choose. The chart is saved on this device, so a few squares a day is enough, and a button under the chart prints a worksheet of the facts you got wrong.

Frequently asked questions

How does the multiplication chart game work?

A fact is asked for one empty square of the chart. Type the answer and press Enter: if it is right, the square fills in, along with its mirror on the other side of the diagonal. Keep going until all 55 facts are filled.

Is my progress saved?

Yes, in this browser on this device. Close the page and come back later and the chart is as you left it. Nothing is sent anywhere, and there is no account to make. Start a new chart whenever you like.

Can I choose which fact to answer?

Yes. Tap or click any empty square and its fact is asked next. Otherwise the game picks an empty square at random, and asks each fact both ways round over time.

Is there a faster game?

The multiplication game drops facts down the screen against a clock, with three lives and levels that speed up. The chart game is the calm one: no timer, nothing to lose, and every right answer stays on the board.
