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 1272 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1272 × k = 1270 × k + 2 × k.
- Each answer is 1272 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1272.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 1272 times table is double the answer in the 636 times table: 636 × 6 = 3,816, so 1272 × 6 = 7,632. To multiply 1272 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1272 away: 12,720 − 1272 = 11,448. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1272: 12,720 + 1272 = 13,992. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1272 → 2,544 → 5,088.
Every multiple of 1272 is at least 1272, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1272 times table exactly when it divides by 1272 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1272 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: 1272 × 10 = 12,720, and 1272 × 100 = 127,200. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 12,720 is 6,360.
Using the 1272 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1272 × 7 = 8,904, you know 8,904 ÷ 1272 = 7 and 8,904 ÷ 7 = 1272. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Answer
6 × 1272 = 7,632 pencils. - Tickets cost $1272 each. How much do 12 tickets cost?
Answer
12 × $1272 = $15,264. - 8,904 chairs are set out in rows of 1272. How many rows are there?
Answer
8,904 ÷ 1272 = 7 rows. - A plant grows 1272 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 12 weeks?
Answer
12 × 1272 = 15,264 millimetres.
Questions
What is 1272 × 12?
15,264.
What is half of 1272 × 8?
1272 × 8 = 10,176, and half of that is 5,088, which is 1272 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1272 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1272 contain nothing.
What is 1272 × 7 and 1272 × 8?
1272 × 7 = 8,904 and 1272 × 8 = 10,176. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 19,080 in the 1272 times table?
Yes: 19,080 ÷ 1272 = 15 with no remainder. 19,081 is not, because dividing it by 1272 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1272 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.
