How to Read the 2 Times Table
Multiplication tells us how many objects are in equal groups. Let's see how 2 × 3 = 6 works.
2 × 3 = 6
2 groups of 3 make 6
Group 1
●
●
●
Group 2
●
●
●
2 Groups of 3
There are 2 groups, with 3 objects in each group.
2 × 3 = 6
Repeated Addition
We can add the groups together:
3 + 3 = 6
What if we think about it the other way?
Multiplication can also be shown as 3 groups of 2.
3 × 2 = 6
Both multiplication facts have the same product: 2 × 3 = 3 × 2 = 6
Learning Tip:
Instead of only memorizing the 2 times table, think about
equal groups. When you understand the groups,
multiplication becomes easier to remember.
Print out the multiplication table of 2 and hang it on your wall which will help you to learn 2 times tables.

How Skip Counting Connects to the 2 Times Table
Each jump of 2 represents one group of 2. For example:
2 × 5 = 10
2 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 10
Remember:
When you skip count by 2, you land on
even numbers.
0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 24

Patterns in the 2 Times Table
The 2 times table has easy-to-spot patterns. Learning these patterns can help students understand and remember multiplication facts.
2
Every Product Is Even
The products in the 2 times table are all even numbers.
2
4
6
8
10
12
Even numbers can be divided into two equal groups with no remainder.
12 ÷ 2 = 6
3
Double a Number
Multiplying a number by 2 is the same as doubling the number.
2 × 7
=
14
7 + 7
=
14
So:
2 × 7 = 7 + 7 = 14
Remember the pattern:
When you multiply a whole number by 2, you can simply
double the number.
2 × 4 = 8 •
2 × 6 = 12 •
2 × 9 = 18 •
2 × 12 = 24

Multiplication Works Both Ways
You can switch the order of the factors and get the same product. This is called the Commutative Property of Multiplication.
2 × 5 = 10
and
5 × 2 = 10
2 Times Table Trick
A simple way to multiply a number by 2 is to double the number. This means adding the same number to itself.
Double the Number
To multiply a number by 2, find twice the number.
Number × 2 = Number + Number
Examples: Multiply by 2
2 × 4 = 8
Double 4 → 4 + 4 = 8
2 × 6 = 12
Double 6 → 6 + 6 = 12
2 × 9 = 18
Double 9 → 9 + 9 = 18
2 × 12 = 24
Double 12 → 12 + 12 = 24
Quick Tip
When you multiply a whole number by 2, you are finding twice the number.
Remember:
Multiplying by 2 is the same as doubling.
For example, 2 × 7 = 14 because
7 + 7 = 14.
2 Times Table on a Number Line
A number line can help you understand the 2 times table. Start at 0 and make equal jumps of 2 to find each product.

Equal Jumps of 2
Each jump represents one group of 2. Every time you make another jump, you add 2 to the number.
1 jump → 2
2 jumps → 4
3 jumps → 6
4 jumps → 8
5 jumps → 10
Connect the Number Line to Multiplication
Five jumps of 2 give us 10.
5 groups of 2
=
5 × 2
=
10
So, 5 × 2 = 10. The number line shows five equal jumps of 2.
Remember:
Multiplication can be shown as equal jumps on a number line.
For the 2 times table, every jump is 2.
Understanding 2 × 5 Using an Array
An array is a group of objects arranged in equal rows and columns. Arrays help us see multiplication visually.
2 rows
5 objects in each row
Count the Objects
There are 2 rows, and each row has 5 objects.
2 rows
×
5 objects
=
10 objects
Write the Multiplication Fact
The array shows 2 groups of 5.
2 × 5 = 10
So, 2 × 5 = 10 because there are 10 objects altogether.
See the Repeated Addition
Each row has 5 objects, so we can also add the two rows:
5 + 5 = 10
This is another way to understand 2 × 5 = 10.
Remember:
An array shows multiplication using equal rows and equal groups.
Here, 2 rows of 5 make 10.
