The multiplication table defines the multiplication operations of an algebraic system. Learning these multiplication tables is not very difficult. Though students cannot remember the table from 1 to 100 in one go, memorizing them can help. The use of a basic calculator is done to carry out large multiplication. It is essential to practice the tables by repeatedly writing them, as calculators are not allowed in the schools. Therefore, it is better to remember the table using the traditional rote learning method. It is based on the memorization of numbers in the column table.
When we multiply the two numbers, the order is not given importance, as the answer will always be the same. Like, if we multiply the first number with the subsequent number or the second one with the first number, the answer will be the same. Therefore, you will find it difficult to memorize the tables at once, and it would help if you learn the table in lumps. Other than this, we can gain proficiency with the maths tables with the help of some patterns. These patterns might help in remembering the product of two numbers.

E.g., you can remember the two times table by multiplying the number. You can add the number with a similar number, like; first, you can multiply 2*4. To find its product add 4+4, we get 8. For a ten times table, just put zero toward the end of the given number. For example, 7 x10 = 70, 11×10 = 110.
