Times tables to 12, step by step

This is the whole grid, mixed: every fact from 1 × 1 up to 12 × 12, drawn in no particular order.

The question

1 × 1

1×1
1×1=1
1×1=1
  1. 1 × 1 means one group of 1 — a single row.
  2. One 1, and nothing else to add to it — so 1 × 1 is just 1. Multiplying by one never moves the number, which is that whole row of the table.
  3. So 1 × 1 = 1.

How it works.

  1. 01

    1 × 1 means one group of 1 — a single row.

  2. 02

    One 1, and nothing else to add to it — so 1 × 1 is just 1. Multiplying by one never moves the number, which is that whole row of the table.

  3. 03

    So 1 × 1 = 1.
