    1.1 Times Table - What Is It?

    The 1 times table, also known as a multiples of 1 chart, is a list of all the numbers that are a product of a given number and 1. When we multiply that number by 1, we obtain the same result. The following table displays the multiplication and addition operations for the number 1.

    1 X 1 = 1

    1

    1 X 2 = 2

    1 + 1 = 2

    1 X 3 = 3

    1 + 1 + 1 = 3

    1 X 4 = 4

    1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 4

    1 X 5 = 5

    1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 5

    1 X 6 = 6

    1 + 1 + 1 + 1+ 1 + 1 = 6

    1 X 7 = 7

    1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 7

    1 X 8 = 8

    1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 8

    1 X 9 = 9

    1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 9

    1 X 10 = 10

    1 + 1 + 1 +1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 10

    3. Solved Examples

    Ex. 1: What is the third multiple of 1 times 2 more than twice?

    Sol. Third multiple of 1 = 3

    Twice the third multiple = 2 X 3 = 6

    Two more than twice the third multiple = 2 + 6 = 8.


    Ex. 2: Each student in a class of 60 is given a packet of cookies. How many packets in total were distributed?

    Sol. Total no. of students = 60

    No. of packets given to each student = 1

    Therefore, the total number of packets of cookies distributed is 1 x 60, or 60.


    Ex. 3: When 1 is multiplied by 5 times, what number is produced?

    Sol. The number will be 5, as 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 1 x 5 = 5.


    Ex. 4: What will the number be when 1 is added 8 times?

    Sol. when we add 1 eighth times, the number will be 1 x 8 = 8.


    Ex. 5: How many chairs will be required at a meeting if one chair is provided to each of the 35 guests?

    Sol. Total no. of guests at the meeting = 35

    No. of chairs of each member = 1

    So, the total no. of chairs required = 35 x 1 = 35.
