Tips for 12 Times Table
1. 12 doesn’t have any rules that make its multiplication table of 12 easy to memorize, but there is a pattern for every five multiples of twelve: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 108, 120
2. The last digit of these multiples always repeat, which means that students can remember these digits to help them with the 12 times table.
3. Another way to memorize the first ten multiples of twelve is:
You can observe in the above image that the digits which are in the unit's place are occurring in a sequence 2, 4, 6, 8, 0 and then repeat again. While in the tens place, the counting numbers are increasing from top to bottom except for the numbers 5 and 11.

Example 1: Using 12 times table, evaluate 12 times 10 minus 20.
Solution:
First, we will write 12 times 10 minus 20 mathematically.
Using 12 times table, we have: 12 times 10 minus 20 = 12 × 10 - 20 = 120 - 20 = 100
Thus, 12 times 10 minus 20 is 100.
-
Example 2: Using the table of 12, check whether 12 times 6 plus 7 is 80.
Solution:
First, we will write 12 times 6 plus 7 mathematically.
Using table of 12, 12 times 6 plus 7 = 12 × 6 + 7 = 72 + 7 = 79
Thus, 12 times 6 plus 7 is not 80.

Example 3: A car covers a distance of 12 km with 1 liter of petrol. Evaluate using the table of 12 what distance will it cover with 15 liters of petrol?
Solution:
Distance covered by car with 1 liter of petrol = 12 km
Distance covered by car with 15 liters of petrol = 12 × 15 = 180 km
Thus, the car will cover 180 km with 15 liters of petrol.
-
Example 4: If a mourning dove chirps 12 times in 1 hour, then using a 12 times table find how many times it will chirp in 8 hours?
Solution:
Number of chirps in 1 hour = 12
Therefore from the table of 12, the number of chirps in 8 hours = 12 times 8 = 96
Thus, it will chirp 96 times in 8 hours.
