The 4 times table is simple: you multiply by 4 or repeatedly adding 4
Here is the 4 times table:
1 × 4 = 4
2 × 4 = 8
3 × 4 = 12
4 × 4 = 16
5 × 4 = 20
6 × 4 = 24
7 × 4 = 28
8 × 4 = 32
9 × 4 = 36
10 × 4 = 40
More than 10:
11 × 4 = 44
12 × 4 = 48
Repeated Addition[]
4 = 4
4 + 4 = 8
4 + 4 + 4 = 12
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 20
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 24
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 28
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 32
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 36
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 40
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 44
4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 48
Tips & Tricks[]
- Multiplying by 4 is the same as doubling once & doubling it again (Doubling the 2 times table. 6 × 4 = 6 + 6 = 12. 12 + 12 = 24)
- Multiplying by 4 is also the same as doubling the 1 times table twice (Multiplying the 1 times table by 4. 8 × 4 = 8 × 1 = 8. 8 + 8 = 16. 16 + 16 = 32)
- Familiarize yourself with the Commutative Property of Multiplication (6 × 4 = 4 × 6 = 24)
- Use songs to memorize (Available on YouTube)
- You can also use rhymes, like:
- 7 & 4 are running late. 7 × 4 = 28
