A times table chart for the wall, the binder or practice
This page prints a multiplication chart to your settings: a grid of 10 × 10, 12 × 12, 15 × 15 or 20 × 20 with the products of every pair of numbers, a header row and a header column, and optional color. The chart can be filled in as a reference, completely blank for a student to fill, or partly blank with 25%, 50% or 75% of the products hidden at random for practice. A second mode prints times table sheets, one table per block, from 1 × 1 to 12 × 12, three blocks on a page, filled in or with blanks.
The chart updates as you change the settings. Download PDF saves it on US Letter or A4, in portrait or landscape, and Print sends the same page to your printer. The partly blank chart is seeded: the same seed hides the same cells, so a chart can be printed again later or shared with Copy link.
How to read the chart
To find 7 × 8, go to the row that starts with 7 and the column that starts with 8. The cell where they meet shows 56. Because 8 × 7 is the same product, the row 8, column 7 cell shows 56 too; the chart is a mirror image of itself across the diagonal. The products on that diagonal, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121 and 144 on a 12 × 12 chart, are the squares, each number multiplied by itself. The Squares highlight colors them.
Reading a whole row gives one times table: the 7 row reads 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49, 56, 63, 70, 77, 84, and each step adds 7. The One table highlight colors that row and the matching column, so the table stands out among the other numbers.
Patterns worth pointing out
- Order does not matter: 3 × 7 = 7 × 3. That halves what there is to learn; every fact below the diagonal repeats one above it.
- The 1 row repeats the header, the 10 row adds a zero, and the 11 row up to 9 doubles the digit: 11, 22, 33 and so on.
- The 5 row ends in 0 or 5 and the 2, 4, 6 and 8 rows hold only even numbers.
- In the 9 row the digits of each product add up to 9 for 9 × 1 through 9 × 10: 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90.
- Neighbors on the diagonal: 7 × 7 = 49, and 6 × 8 = 48, one less. The same holds along the whole diagonal: 5 × 5 = 25 and 4 × 6 = 24.
These are plain arithmetic facts you can check on the chart in front of you, and they are the reason a chart teaches more than a list. For the pattern behind each table and a routine for learning the facts, the guide times tables 1 to 12 goes deeper.
Using the blank and partly blank charts
A blank chart turns the reference into a worksheet: the student fills in every product, which takes a while and shows which rows are solid and which are not. The partly blank chart is a shorter version. With 25% hidden, most answers are visible as hints and the student fills in the gaps, good for a first pass. With 75% hidden, the chart is mostly empty and the visible cells serve as checkpoints. Print the filled chart as the answer key, or print the same chart with the same seed and Filled selected.
The times table sheets suit learning one table at a time. Pick the range, for example 6 to 8, choose Blank to fill in, and each block becomes a short quiz with 10 or 12 lines; the filled version of the same range is the answer sheet. For mixed practice with random problems rather than tables in order, the math worksheet generator makes sheets of multiplication problems with an answer key, and the flashcard maker prints facts as cards.
Colors, sizes and paper
Color uses light tints: blue for the headers, green for the squares, a warm tint for the highlighted table, and a faint tint on every other band of five rows that helps the eye follow a row across a wide chart. Grayscale uses the same pattern in grays for a black and white printer or a photocopier. Each cell has a thin border, and the header row and column are set off by a heavier line.
A 12 × 12 chart in portrait fills the page with large cells. The 15 × 15 and 20 × 20 charts have more columns, so landscape gives them wider cells and larger digits; the PDF scales the font to the longest product, 400 on a 20 × 20 chart. On a phone the preview scrolls sideways for the large sizes; the PDF always holds the whole chart on one page.
How to print a multiplication chart
- 1Choose Multiplication chart or Times table sheets. For the chart, pick the size and whether the cells are filled, blank or partly blank.
- 2Add a highlight for the squares or one table, choose Color or Grayscale, the paper and the orientation.
- 3Check the preview, then print it or download the PDF. Copy link keeps the settings and the seed.

Frequently asked questions
Is this multiplication chart free to print?
Yes. It is free, needs no signup and puts no watermark on the page. The chart and the PDF are made in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.
What is the difference between the chart and the times table sheets?
The chart is one grid with every product from 1 × 1 up to the size you pick, 10 × 10 to 20 × 20. The times table sheets print one table per block, for example the 7 times table as 7 × 1 = 7 down to 7 × 12 = 84, three blocks on each page, filled in or with blanks to complete.
How does the partly blank chart work?
It hides a share of the products, 25%, 50% or 75%, chosen at random by a seeded generator. The headers always stay. The same seed and settings hide the same cells, so you can print the same practice chart again or share it with a link. New chart draws a new seed.
Why are the squares on the diagonal special?
They are the products of a number with itself: 1, 4, 9, 16, 25 and so on. They sit on the diagonal from the top left to the bottom right, and the chart is mirrored across that line, because 3 × 7 and 7 × 3 give the same 21. Highlight them with the diagonal option.
Can I highlight one times table?
Yes. Choose One table under Highlight and pick the number. Its row and its column are colored, so you see the 7 times table across and down and where the two meet at 49.
Which paper size does the PDF use?
US Letter or A4, in portrait or landscape. It starts on Letter when your browser language is US or Canadian English and on A4 otherwise. A 20 × 20 chart is easier to read in landscape, where the cells are wider.
