The 15 times table

The 15 times table is 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150, 165, 180, 195, 210, 225. It may also be called the fifteen times table or 15x table. This is optional extension practice: England’s Year 4 recall target and the Multiplication Tables Check stop at 12 × 12.

Learn it once the tables to 12 are secure. Build each fact from tables you already know, then practise in a mixed order until the answers come quickly.

A useful method for the 15 times table

Split 15 into 10 and 5. The 5 times fact is half the 10 times fact, so 15 × 8 = 80 + 40 = 120.

Use the method as a safety net while recall develops. Once a fact is understood, return to it later in a different order so it is remembered on its own.

Facts to focus on

15 × 7 = 105, 15 × 9 = 135 and 15 × 15 = 225 are the trickiest. 15 minutes is a quarter of an hour, so 15 × 4 = 60.

Pattern to notice

The answers end in 5 and 0 alternately, and every answer is a multiple of both 3 and 5.
