Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 2, 4, 6, 8, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 1042 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 1042 × k = 1040 × k + 2 × k.
  • Each answer is 1042 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1042.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 1042 times table is double the answer in the 521 times table: 521 × 6 = 3,126, so 1042 × 6 = 6,252. To multiply 1042 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1042 away: 10,420 − 1042 = 9,378. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1042: 10,420 + 1042 = 11,462. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1042 → 2,084 → 4,168.

Every multiple of 1042 is at least 1042, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1042 times table exactly when it divides by 1042 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 1042 is even, every answer in its table is even, which is a quick way to catch a wrong answer. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1042 × 10 = 10,420, and 1042 × 100 = 104,200. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 10,420 is 5,210.

Using the 1042 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 1042 × 7 = 7,294, you know 7,294 ÷ 1042 = 7 and 7,294 ÷ 7 = 1042. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
