Learning the 8s

The tricky ones

8 × 7 = 56 and 8 × 6 = 48 are the hard ones; 8 × 8 = 64 is easier because it is a square.

Use what you know

Double three times: 8 × 6 → 12 → 24 → 48. Or use 10 × take away two groups: 8 × 7 is 70 − 14 = 56.

Where you meet the 8s

  • Spider legs: 6 spiders have 48 legs.
  • Octopus arms: 7 octopuses have 56 arms.
  • Crayons in a box of 8: 9 boxes hold 72 crayons.

  • The ones digits go 8, 6, 4, 2, 0 and repeat.

Divide by 8

Every multiplication fact has a division fact in its family: if 8 × 4 = 32, then 32 ÷ 8 = 4.

  1. 8 ÷ 81
  2. 16 ÷ 82
  3. 24 ÷ 83
  4. 32 ÷ 84
  5. 40 ÷ 85
  6. 48 ÷ 86
  7. 56 ÷ 87
  8. 64 ÷ 88
  9. 72 ÷ 89
  10. 80 ÷ 810
