Times tables

9 TIMES TABLES TRICK

WEAKNESSES

Make these your focus for a few days, then get on an app or website and just practice all of them together

3 x 6 and 6 x 3 = 18

4 x 6 and 6 x 4 = 24

6 x 6 = 36

6 x 7 or 7 x 6 = 42

6 x 8 or 8 x 6 = 48

3 x 7 and 7 x 3 = 21

4 x 7 and 7 x 4 = 28

7 x 7 = 49

7 x 8 and 8 x 7 = 56

3 x 8 and 8 x 3 = 24

4 x 8 and 8 x 4 = 32

These are the times tables above for drill practice

Fractions

Simplifying

Remember - what is the highest number you can divide both the top and the bottom by (always start with the numerator as the highest common factor)

Adding/subtracting fractions with different denominators

Remember - check if addition or subtraction

Remember - you might only need to change one denominator, not both

Only convert the following questions to IMPROPER format if you need to

Multiplying fractions

We have only just started this so it is simply practicing the rule to multiply the top with the top and bottom with the bottom (there is another cancelling skill we didn't get to)

You can also practice simplifying your answers here (where possible)
