Multiplication Table of 3
This table shows the 3 times table — each row multiplies 3 by numbers 1 through 12. Multiplication tables are the foundation of mental arithmetic and are used in everything from shopping totals to algebra.
The ten products pair up around 33: 3 + 30, 6 + 27, and so on — five pairs in all. The first ten products end in 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0 — all ten digits appear, because 10 and 3 share no divisor.

Frequently asked questions
What is the 3 times table?
The 3 times table lists every product of 3, from 3 × 1 = 3 up to 3 × 12 = 36. Each row above shows one product.
