Fascinating Fact:

If a tree is 6 metres tall, another tree that is 2 times taller would be 12 metres. Doubling means multiplying by 2.

In 11 Plus Times Tables, the 2 times table is one of the fastest ways to solve questions because it is simply doubling. Knowing doubles and halves helps with mental arithmetic, quick checking, and spotting even-number patterns.

Key Terms

  • Multiply: To add the same number repeatedly, for example 2 × 5 means 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2.
  • Double: To multiply a number by 2, such as doubling 9 to make 18.
  • Even number: A whole number that can be divided by 2 with no remainder, like 14 or 32.

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

What is the 2 times table?

The 2 times table is the set of results you get when you multiply numbers by 2, such as 2 × 1 = 2, 2 × 5 = 10, and 2 × 12 = 24.

How do I learn the 2 times table quickly for the 11 Plus?

Learn it as doubling: double 6 to get 12, double 9 to get 18, and so on. Practise fast doubles up to 12, then use quick-fire questions to build speed.

How can I check a 2 times table answer in my head?

You can check by halving the answer and seeing if you get the original number. For example, if 2 × 7 = 14, half of 14 is 7, so it matches.
