Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0.
- The digits of every answer add up to a multiple of 9.
- Split it into tens and ones: 117 × k = 110 × k + 7 × k.
- Each answer is 117 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 117.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 117 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 117 away: 1,170 − 117 = 1,053. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 117: 1,170 + 117 = 1,287. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 117 → 234 → 468.
Every multiple of 117 is at least 117, so there are none below 100 and 8 below 1,000. A number is in the 117 times table exactly when it divides by 117 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 117 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 117 × 1 = 117 is odd, 117 × 2 = 234 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 117 × 10 = 1,170, and 117 × 100 = 11,700. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 1,170 is 585.
Using the 117 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 117 × 7 = 819, you know 819 ÷ 117 = 7 and 819 ÷ 7 = 117. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Word problems
Times tables are most useful when you can spot them in a question. Try these, then open each one to check:
- A box holds 117 pencils. How many pencils are in 9 boxes?
Answer
9 × 117 = 1,053 pencils. - Tickets cost $117 each. How much do 9 tickets cost?
Answer
9 × $117 = $1,053. - 936 chairs are set out in rows of 117. How many rows are there?
Answer
936 ÷ 117 = 8 rows. - A plant grows 117 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 11 weeks?
Answer
11 × 117 = 1,287 millimetres.
Questions
What is 117 × 12?
1,404.
What is half of 117 × 8?
117 × 8 = 936, and half of that is 468, which is 117 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 117 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 117 contain nothing.
What is 117 × 7 and 117 × 8?
117 × 7 = 819 and 117 × 8 = 936. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 1,755 in the 117 times table?
Yes: 1,755 ÷ 117 = 15 with no remainder. 1,756 is not, because dividing it by 117 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 117 times table quickly?
Learn it in order first, then use the patterns above and practise mixed questions; a few minutes a day works better than one long session.
