Fascinating Fact:

In KS3 Maths Times Tables, the 2 times table powers mental maths. You’ll use doubling to scale amounts quickly, and halving to divide. These skills support estimation, checking, and tackling bigger calculations confidently.

  • Multiple: A number in a times table; for 2 it’s 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, …
  • Factor: A whole number that divides exactly into another; 2 is a factor of 18 because 18 ÷ 2 = 9.
  • Even number: An integer ending in 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8; every even number is a multiple of 2.

What is the quickest way to learn the 2 times table?

Count in twos (2, 4, 6, …), practise doubling, and memorise anchors like 2 × 5 = 10 and 2 × 10 = 20.

How do I use the 2 times table to divide?

Use halving. If 2 × 9 = 18, then 18 ÷ 2 = 9. For larger numbers, halve step by step to find the answer.

How can I tell if a number is a multiple of 2?

Check the last digit. If it’s 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8, the number is even and divisible by 2.
