Did you know...
0 + 9 = 9
1 + 8 = 9
2 + 7 = 9
etc.
When the answers are larger, just keep adding the digits
eg
9 x 11 = 99
9 + 9 = 18 (keep adding)
1 + 8 = 9
This works however large the number
eg
9 x 532 = 4,788
4 + 7 + 8 + 8 = 27 (keep adding)
2 + 7 = 9
If you add up the digits in the answers they will always add up to NINE

Finding it difficult to remember 9 times a number?
Work out 10 times that number, then subtract that number
What is 6 x 9? ie 9 lots of 6
Well, 10 lots of 6 = 60
so 6 x 9 is 60 less one lot of 6
60 - 6 = 54
What is 3 x 9? ie 9 lots of 3
Well, 10 x 3 = 30, but that is one lot of 3 too many.
9 x 3 = 30 less 3 = 27
