Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 8, 6, 4, 2, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 1248 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1248 × k = 1240 × k + 8 × k.
- Each answer is 1248 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1248.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 1248 times table is double the answer in the 624 times table: 624 × 6 = 3,744, so 1248 × 6 = 7,488. To multiply 1248 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1248 away: 12,480 − 1248 = 11,232. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1248: 12,480 + 1248 = 13,728. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1248 → 2,496 → 4,992.
Every multiple of 1248 is at least 1248, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1248 times table exactly when it divides by 1248 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1248 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: 1248 × 10 = 12,480, and 1248 × 100 = 124,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 12,480 is 6,240.
Using the 1248 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1248 × 7 = 8,736, you know 8,736 ÷ 1248 = 7 and 8,736 ÷ 7 = 1248. 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:

Answer
7 × 1248 = 8,736 pencils. - Tickets cost $1248 each. How much do 8 tickets cost?
Answer
8 × $1248 = $9,984. - 8,736 chairs are set out in rows of 1248. How many rows are there?
Answer
8,736 ÷ 1248 = 7 rows. - A plant grows 1248 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 7 weeks?
Answer
7 × 1248 = 8,736 millimetres.
Questions
What is 1248 × 12?
14,976.
What is half of 1248 × 8?
1248 × 8 = 9,984, and half of that is 4,992, which is 1248 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1248 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1248 contain nothing.
What is 1248 × 7 and 1248 × 8?
1248 × 7 = 8,736 and 1248 × 8 = 9,984. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 18,720 in the 1248 times table?
Yes: 18,720 ÷ 1248 = 15 with no remainder. 18,721 is not, because dividing it by 1248 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1248 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.
