9 times tables are rather simple. Take the number, times it by 10 and then minus the number.

For example, 15 x 10 = 150 - 15 = 9 x 15.

Boy let me tell you what:
I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player too.
And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.

Re: Loving it

you didn't actually write the answer there so we have no proof that it works.

9 times tables are rather simple. Take the number, times it by 10 and then minus the number.

Example: 6 times 9

Take 6, times it by 10 (60), then minus the 6 and you get 54.  6 x 9 = 54

Another example: 8 x 9 = 80-8 = 72.
