The 4 times table is simple: you multiply by 4 or repeatedly adding 4

Here is the 4 times table:

1 × 4 = 4

2 × 4 = 8

3 × 4 = 12

4 × 4 = 16

5 × 4 = 20

6 × 4 = 24

7 × 4 = 28

8 × 4 = 32

9 × 4 = 36

10 × 4 = 40

More than 10:

11 × 4 = 44

12 × 4 = 48

Repeated Addition

4 = 4

4 + 4 = 8

4 + 4 + 4 = 12

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 16

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 20

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 24

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 28

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 32

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 36

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 40

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 44

4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 + 4 = 48

Tips & Tricks

• Multiplying by 4 is the same as doubling once & doubling it again (Doubling the 2 times table. 6 × 4 = 6 + 6 = 12. 12 + 12 = 24)
• Multiplying by 4 is also the same as doubling the 1 times table twice (Multiplying the 1 times table by 4. 8 × 4 = 8 × 1 = 8. 8 + 8 = 16. 16 + 16 = 32)
• Familiarize yourself with the Commutative Property of Multiplication (6 × 4 = 4 × 6 = 24)
• Use songs to memorize (Available on YouTube)
• You can also use rhymes, like:
• 7 & 4 are running late. 7 × 4 = 28
