| Fact | Answer | Division |
|---|---|---|
| 20 × 1 | 20 | 20 ÷ 20 = 1 |
| 20 × 2 | 40 | 40 ÷ 20 = 2 |
| 20 × 3 | 60 | 60 ÷ 20 = 3 |
| 20 × 4 | 80 | 80 ÷ 20 = 4 |

| 20 × 6 | 120 | 120 ÷ 20 = 6 |
| 20 × 7 | 140 | 140 ÷ 20 = 7 |
| 20 × 8 | 160 | 160 ÷ 20 = 8 |
| 20 × 9 | 180 | 180 ÷ 20 = 9 |
| 20 × 10 | 200 | 200 ÷ 20 = 10 |
| 20 × 11 | 220 | 220 ÷ 20 = 11 |
| 20 × 12 | 240 | 240 ÷ 20 = 12 |
The trick: double, then add a zero
20 × n is 2 × n with a zero: 20 × 7 = 140. Every answer ends in 0, and the tens digits are the 2 times table.
Patterns in the 20s
Every answer ends in 0.
The 20 times table is the 10 times table plus the 10 times table, row by row: 20 × 6 = 10 × 6 + 10 × 6 = 60 + 60 = 120.
Each answer is 20 more than the one before, so if you know 20 × 6 = 120, then 20 × 7 is 120 + 20 = 140.
