    How to use this worksheet

    • Count by fives to 50 together, using the minute marks on a clock face if you have one.
    • Solve problems 1 to 19, which include every fact with 5 once; 5 × 5 appears at problem 13 and again at 23.
    • Before checking, look over the answers: any answer that does not end in 5 or 0 needs a second look.
    • Finish problems 20 to 30 and check everything with the answer page.

    What this worksheet teaches

    The 5 times table is one of the easiest to learn, because its answers follow a clear rhythm: 5, 10, 15, 20... up to 50. The worksheet mixes both orders of each fact (5 × 8 and 8 × 5), shuffles them so no answer can be copied from the line above and repeats eleven facts for fluency. Knowing the fives well is useful for telling time, since the minute hand moves five minutes from one number to the next.

    Fives end in 5 or 0

    When 5 is multiplied by an even number, the answer ends in 0 (5 × 8 = 40); by an odd number, it ends in 5 (5 × 7 = 35). There is also a neat shortcut: 5 × a number is half of 10 × that number. So 5 × 8 is half of 80, which is 40, and 5 × 9 is half of 90, which is 45.

    Questions and answers

    Questions from parents

    Why do the answers on this 5 times table sheet end only in 5 or 0?
    Every multiple of 5 is a whole number of fives, and fives alternate between ending in 5 and ending in 0.
    How does the clock help with the 5 times table?
    Each number on a clock face is five minutes apart, so the 7 stands for 7 × 5 = 35 minutes.
    Is it worth practicing the 5s before harder tables?
    Yes. Fives are an anchor: 6 × 7 is 5 × 7 = 35 plus one more 7, which is 42.
