What are ‘tables’ in Mathematics?

Tables show the results of multiplying a number from the number ’13.’ The results are shown in a pattern where a row and column meet. Tables are helpful is solving any kind of calculation where multiplication is required.

What is 13 times table?

13 times table consists of the multiplication of number 13 with the whole number. When a student’s learns table of 13, then it becomes easier for him to save enough time during any kind of examination, whether it’s a ‘term exam’, ‘class test’ or a competitive exam. 13 times tables do not only hold a relevance to clear class exam, but it also plays a major role in in our daily life as it helps in making calculations whenever we buy something or outline an estimate of purchasing something in future.

Uses of 13 times table

13 times tables prove really helpful in subjects like:

• Algebra
• Geometry
• Trigonometry

It also comes handy, when you have to do complex calculations like Calculus, Number theory, Pythagoras theorems and many more. There is a hidden fact that table of 13 has been discovered by the Greek Mathematician – Pythagoras. Sometimes, we also call it ‘Tables of Pythagoras.’

What are the tips to memorize Table of 13?

1. In order to memorize the 13 times table, firstly memorize the multiples of 3 which are – 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21 and so on…

2. Obtain the multiples of 13 by adding natural numbers to the ten’s digit of the multiples of 3. (1+0)3, (2+0)6, (3+0)9, (4+1)2, (5+1)5, (6+1)8, (7+2)1, ((8+2)4, (9+2)7, (10+3)0 =13, 26, 39, 52 and so on.

3. There are no particular rules that make the multiplication of table 13 easier to memorize, although there is a pattern for every ten multiples of three like – 13, 26, 39, 52, 65 and so on. The point to be noted here is that the last multiples always repeat, meaning that the students can remember these digits to help them with the 13 times table.

4. You can watch the musical videos of 13 on YouTube to learn the 13 table in an entertaining manner.

Illustrations:

Here are a few illustrations that apply table of 13:

Example 1: If Suman presses the horn, it rings for 3 times. Using the table of 13, find out how many times will the doorbell ring if she presses it for 13 times?

Solution:

Number of times the doorbell rings when it is pressed once = 3

Therefore, number of times the doorbell rings when it its pressed for 13 times = 13 x 3 = 39.

Hence, the doorbell will ring for 39 times.

Example 2: Using the 13 times table, solve the operations problem as given below.

8+8+13×13

Solution:

Firstly, multiply 13×13 using the table of 3 = 169

Now, let’s add 8+8 = 16

Now, let’s add 169+16 =185

So, the answer is 185.

Hope, you understood about the importance of table 13 and how to learn it. Before signing off this article, do remember the fact that ‘practice makes the man perfect.’ So, keep revising it and solve enough questions related to table of 13. All the Best!
