Hey there! Today, we’re going to learn about a fun math fact: 5 times 9 equals 45. Let’s explore what this means and how you can remember it easily!
When we say 5 times 9, we’re talking about adding the number 9 together five times. So, it’s like saying 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9. If you add all those nines together, you’ll get 45!
Let’s try counting by nines to see how we get to 45:
See? When you count by nines, the fifth number you say is 45. That’s why 5 times 9 equals 45!

Finger Multiplication Magic: Use your fingers to explore multiplication! Hold up both hands and imagine each finger represents a number. For 5 x 9, fold down the fifth finger on your left hand. Count the fingers to the left of the folded finger (4) and the fingers to the right (5). Put them together, and you get 45! Try this with other numbers to see how it works.
Number Hunt: Go on a number hunt around your house or classroom. Look for groups of 9 items, like 9 pencils or 9 blocks. Count how many groups of 9 you can find. How many groups do you need to make 45? Can you find exactly 5 groups of 9?
Story Time with Numbers: Create a short story or draw a picture about a character who loves the number 9. Maybe they have 9 pets or collect 9 different things. How does their collection grow when they add more groups of 9? Share your story or drawing with a friend or family member.
