Tricks that help
- Count in 42s: start at 42 and add 42 each time (42, 84, 126, 168, 210…).
- Split 42 into 40 and 2: 42 × 7 = 40 × 7 + 2 × 7 = 280 + 14 = 294.
- 42 is double 21, so double the 21 times table: 21 × 7 = 147, and double 147 is 294.
- 42 × 10 = 420: multiplying by 10 adds a zero to the end.
- Every fact has a twin: 42 × 7 = 7 × 42 = 294. If you know one, you know both.
- The last digits of the first ten answers go 2, 4, 6, 8, 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 0.
