Multiplication is repeated addition. Let’s break down the table of 50 this way:
50 × 1 = 50
50 × 2 = 50 + 50 = 100
50 × 3 = 50 + 50 + 50 = 150
50 × 4 = 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 = 200
50 × 5 = 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 = 250
50 × 6 = 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 = 300
50 × 7 = 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 = 350
50 × 8 = 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 = 400
50 × 9 = 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 = 450
50 × 10 = 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 + 50 = 500
