Extended multiplication table from 1 to 20
The extended multiplication table is a Pythagoras table in which the intersection of a row and a column contains the product of the corresponding numbers. Unlike the basic table up to 10, the extended version covers numbers from 1 to 20 and allows you to calculate in your head faster, solve problems in algebra and geometry, and save time on exams.
The table is useful for schoolchildren, students, and anyone who wants to maintain their mental arithmetic skills. It is especially helpful when working with fractions, percentages, and areas, where products of two-digit numbers are common.

How to read the table
Find the first number in the left column and the second in the top row. At the intersection of the row and column is their product. For example, 7 × 8 = 56. The diagonal is highlighted in gray — these are the squares of numbers (1, 4, 9, 16, … 400).

Example: at the intersection of row 12 and column 15 is the number 180 — this means that 12 × 15 = 180.
How it differs from the table up to 10
The basic multiplication table covers numbers from 1 to 10 and is studied in primary school. The extended one covers 1 to 20; it is not part of the compulsory curriculum but is useful for calculation speed and solving more complex problems.
| Characteristic | Up to 10 | Up to 20 |
|---|---|---|
| Range of numbers | 1–10 | 1–20 |
| Number of examples | 100 | 400 |
| Grade level | Primary school | Middle school, for speed |
| Application | Foundation of calculation | Fractions, percentages, areas |
If you haven't yet mastered the basic table, start with it: Multiplication table from 1 to 10.
Why the extended multiplication table is needed
- It allows you to quickly calculate products of two-digit numbers in your head.
- It speeds up solving problems in algebra, geometry, and physics.
- It helps when working with fractions, percentages, areas, and volumes.
- It saves time on exams and tests.
- It trains memory and develops mathematical thinking.
How to memorize the extended table
The basic principles are the same as for the basic table. The full guide is on the page "How to learn the multiplication table quickly". In brief: «How to learn the multiplication table quickly».
- Use the commutative law: 12 × 15 = 15 × 12. This halves the amount of memorization.
- Rely on "anchor" examples: 10 × 10 = 100, 10 × 20 = 200, 20 × 20 = 400.
- Break complex examples into simple ones: 12 × 15 = (10 × 15) + (2 × 15) = 150 + 30 = 180.
- Practice regularly for 10–15 minutes a day on the online trainer.
