Learn a Fact: 7 x 9

Step 1

Put your hands on the table in front of you.

Step 2

Your fingers represent the numbers 1 through 10.

Step 3

• Each finger to the left of the curled finger represents 10. 
• Since one finger is to the left of the curled finger, there are 6 tens or 60.  (The first number of the answer is 6)
• Each finger to the right of the curled finger represents one.  
• Count 1, 2, 3.  (Or 61, 62, 63)  
• 7 x 9 = 63
