Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 4, 8, 2, 6, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 124 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 124 × k = 120 × k + 4 × k.
- Each answer is 124 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 124.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 124 times table is double the answer in the 62 times table: 62 × 6 = 372, so 124 × 6 = 744. To multiply 124 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 124 away: 1,240 − 124 = 1,116. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 124: 1,240 + 124 = 1,364. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 124 → 248 → 496.
Every multiple of 124 is at least 124, so there are none below 100 and 8 below 1,000. A number is in the 124 times table exactly when it divides by 124 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 124 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: 124 × 10 = 1,240, and 124 × 100 = 12,400. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 1,240 is 620.
Using the 124 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 124 × 7 = 868, you know 868 ÷ 124 = 7 and 868 ÷ 7 = 124. 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 124 pencils. How many pencils are in 9 boxes?
Answer
9 × 124 = 1,116 pencils. - Tickets cost $124 each. How much do 5 tickets cost?
Answer
5 × $124 = $620. - 620 chairs are set out in rows of 124. How many rows are there?
Answer
620 ÷ 124 = 5 rows. - A plant grows 124 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 9 weeks?
Answer
9 × 124 = 1,116 millimetres.
Questions
What is 124 × 12?
1,488.
What is half of 124 × 8?
124 × 8 = 992, and half of that is 496, which is 124 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 124 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 124 contain nothing.
What is 124 × 7 and 124 × 8?
124 × 7 = 868 and 124 × 8 = 992. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 1,860 in the 124 times table?
Yes: 1,860 ÷ 124 = 15 with no remainder. 1,861 is not, because dividing it by 124 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 124 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.
