Every value is real text — select the table and paste it straight into a spreadsheet or a document.
Printing it
- Press Ctrl+P, or Cmd+P on a Mac.
- Choose landscape. The grid is wider than it is tall, and portrait squeezes the columns.
- Set scale to fit to page, so all twelve columns land on one sheet.
- Print in greyscale to save ink. The grid lines and the numbers still come out clearly.
Card stock lasts far longer than copier paper if the chart is going on a wall or into a pencil case.
Reading the grid
Pick either factor along the top row and the other down the left column, then follow them until they meet. The number in that square is the product. Order does not matter: 7 across and 8 down lands on the same 56 as 8 across and 7 down.
Half the chart is a free gift
The grid is symmetrical about the diagonal running from top left to bottom right, so every fact above that line is repeated below it. Of the 144 squares, only 78 are distinct facts, and the tables of 1, 2, 5 and 10 account for a large share of those. What is actually left to memorise is much smaller than the chart looks.
When an answer looks wrong
Almost every mistake is a slipped row or column, and two quick checks catch it. First, look at the diagonal: it should read 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, 144. If your square number is not sitting on that diagonal, your eye has drifted a line. Second, look the same fact up the other way round and see whether both readings agree.
