Fascinating Fact:

The Empire State Building is about six times taller than the Statue of Liberty, standing 381 metres compared to 93 metres.

In KS3 Maths Times Tables, the 6 times table links closely to 2s and 3s. Use patterns (add 6 each time), double your 3s facts, and apply inverse division to check answers.

What is the quickest way to learn the 6 times table?

Build from 3s: 6 × n = 2 × (3 × n). If you know 3 × 7 = 21, then 6 × 7 = 42. Skip-count: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30…

How do I divide by 6 using my times tables?

Use inverse facts. If 6 × 8 = 48, then 48 ÷ 6 = 8. Or split by factors: 48 ÷ 6 = (48 ÷ 3) ÷ 2 = 16 ÷ 2 = 8.

What is the divisibility rule for 6?

A number is divisible by 6 if it is divisible by 2 and by 3. So it must be even, and the sum of its digits must be a multiple of 3.

  • Multiple: A number in a times table; for 6 it’s 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, …
  • Factor: A whole number that divides exactly into another; 6 is a factor of 54 because 54 ÷ 6 = 9.
  • Inverse operations: Calculations that undo each other, like 6 × 9 = 54 and 54 ÷ 6 = 9.
