Tips for 3 Times Table
1. The multiplication table of 3 does not have any rules that make it easy to memorize, but there is a pattern that it follows. Each multiple increases by 3 so it can be learned by skip counting of 3. The multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30.
2. The last digits of these multiples always repeat and create a pattern. Observe the last digit of the multiples which are 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0, then again the cycle repeats as, 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0, and it continues like this. This can help in memorizing the 3 times table.

Three Times Table Examples
-
Example 1: Using the 3 times table, evaluate 3 times 4.
Solution:
First, we will write 3 times 4 mathematically.
Using the multiplication table of 3, we have: 3 times 4 = 3 × 4 = 12
Hence, 3 times 4 is 12.
-
Example 2: Using the table of 3, find the value of 3 times 9.
Solution:
First, we will write 3 times 9 mathematically.
From the 3 times table, we know that 3 times 9 = 3 × 9 = 27
Hence, 3 times 9 is 27.
-

How to Write the 3 Times Table?
The 3 times table is simple to remember and does not require any specific trick. However, in order to learn the 3 times table, we need to understand that the 3 times table is a repeated addition of 3. As we know that multiplication is a form of repeated addition, so this can be understood with the following concept. We know that 3 × 6 can be written as 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 18. Therefore, 3 × 6 = 18.
