Patterns to Discover

The multiplication table is full of patterns! Notice how the diagonal (1, 4, 9, 16, 25...) is all perfect squares. The ร—5 column always ends in 0 or 5. Every row is the same as its column โ€” this is the commutative property!

How to Use

Click any cell to highlight its entire row (horizontal) and column (vertical). Use the pattern buttons to reveal hidden structures in the table. Try clicking 6ร—7 and 7ร—6 โ€” they're always equal!
