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 1278 is even.
- The digits of every answer add up to a multiple of 9.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1278 × k = 1270 × k + 8 × k.
- Each answer is 1278 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1278.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 1278 times table is double the answer in the 639 times table: 639 × 6 = 3,834, so 1278 × 6 = 7,668. To multiply 1278 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1278 away: 12,780 − 1278 = 11,502. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1278: 12,780 + 1278 = 14,058. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1278 → 2,556 → 5,112.
Every multiple of 1278 is at least 1278, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1278 times table exactly when it divides by 1278 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1278 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: 1278 × 10 = 12,780, and 1278 × 100 = 127,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 12,780 is 6,390.
Using the 1278 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1278 × 7 = 8,946, you know 8,946 ÷ 1278 = 7 and 8,946 ÷ 7 = 1278. 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
5 × 1278 = 6,390 pencils. - Tickets cost $1278 each. How much do 8 tickets cost?
Answer
8 × $1278 = $10,224. - 6,390 chairs are set out in rows of 1278. How many rows are there?
Answer
6,390 ÷ 1278 = 5 rows. - A plant grows 1278 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 12 weeks?
Answer
12 × 1278 = 15,336 millimetres.
Questions
What is 1278 × 12?
15,336.
What is half of 1278 × 8?
1278 × 8 = 10,224, and half of that is 5,112, which is 1278 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1278 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1278 contain nothing.
What is 1278 × 7 and 1278 × 8?
1278 × 7 = 8,946 and 1278 × 8 = 10,224. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 19,170 in the 1278 times table?
Yes: 19,170 ÷ 1278 = 15 with no remainder. 19,171 is not, because dividing it by 1278 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1278 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.
