    Unhappy Learning Multiplications

    Okay this may sound stupid but Im in 7th grade and I don't know all my multiplications. Well I know some and the others one I have to count with fingers. Im really want to learn them before I enter 8th grade I got the rest of the teacher strike and the summer but how should I learn them without using flashcards?
    Should I just read them in my mind and say them out loud sometimes or should I write the whole 3,4,6,7,8,9 ect. table a few time or shuld i write them out as 5x5=25?
    Also how many time should I write them?

    Hey

    Multiplications are at first seeming Difficult, But really there not once you get the hang of them,


    For example 5x5 = 25, think of it as 5x10 = 50 /2 = 25.

    The same can apply to 3x5 ( 3x10 /2 = 15).

    Youl get the hang of it dont you worry!
    If you are going to do long multiplications in a test and the question is 251 x 184 You can set it out using the box method below


    --- 200 50 1
    100
    80
    4

    Then fill it out
    -----200 50 1
    100 20,000 5000 100
    80 16000 4000 80
    4 800 200 4

    Then simply add them together

    20000
    16000
    5000
    4000
    800
    200
    100
    80
    4

    = 46184
