Use a fact you know to reach one you don't: 9 × 7 is 10 × 7 − 7 = 63. For division, think of the multiplication: 42 ÷ 6 asks what times 6 makes 42.
facta short multiplication or division you know by heart
productthe answer to ×

fact familyfacts that use the same three numbers
Watch for: Mixing up close facts, like 7 × 8 = 56 and 6 × 9 = 54. Rushing to beat the time and not checking answers. Treating division facts as new instead of using the times table.
At home: Practice a few facts a day in spare moments, like in the car. Spend the time on the slow ones, not the ones already known.
