The 9 times table from 1 to 20
9 × 1 through 9 × 9 belong to the core facts — every product of two one-digit numbers — that US standards expect students to know from memory by the end of third grade. Each row also gives the matching division fact.

| 9 × 2 | 18 | 18 ÷ 9 = 2 |
| 9 × 3 | 27 | 27 ÷ 9 = 3 |
| 9 × 4 | 36 | 36 ÷ 9 = 4 |
| 9 × 5 | 45 | 45 ÷ 9 = 5 |
| 9 × 6 | 54 | 54 ÷ 9 = 6 |
| 9 × 7 | 63 | 63 ÷ 9 = 7 |
| 9 × 8 | 72 | 72 ÷ 9 = 8 |
| 9 × 9 | 81 | 81 ÷ 9 = 9 |
| 9 × 10 | 90 | 90 ÷ 9 = 10 |
| 9 × 11 | 99 | 99 ÷ 9 = 11 |
| 9 × 12 | 108 | 108 ÷ 9 = 12 |
| 9 × 13 | 117 | 117 ÷ 9 = 13 |

Patterns in the 9 times table
- Last digits. The ones digits of 9 × 1 to 9 × 10 are 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0 — all ten digits appear once before the pattern repeats, because 9 shares no factor with 10.
- Odd and even. 9 is odd, so the answers alternate odd, even, odd, even — odd times odd is odd, odd times even is even.
- Digit sums. Keep adding the digits of any answer until one digit is left and you always reach 9 — the test for divisibility by 9.
- Built from smaller tables. 9 = 3 × 3, so you can multiply by 3 and then by 3: 9 × 7 = 3 × 21 = 63.
A shortcut for multiplying by 9
Ten times minus once: 9 × 7 = 70 − 7 = 63. From 9 × 1 to 9 × 10 the digits of each answer add up to 9.
Worked example: 9 × 14
Split 14 into 10 + 4: 9 × 10 = 90 and 9 × 4 = 36, so 9 × 14 = 126.
