Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1279 × k = 1270 × k + 9 × k.
- Each answer is 1279 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1279.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 1279 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1279 away: 12,790 − 1279 = 11,511. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1279: 12,790 + 1279 = 14,069. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1279 → 2,558 → 5,116.
Every multiple of 1279 is at least 1279, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1279 times table exactly when it divides by 1279 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1279 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 1279 × 1 = 1279 is odd, 1279 × 2 = 2,558 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1279 × 10 = 12,790, and 1279 × 100 = 127,900. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 12,790 is 6,395.
Using the 1279 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1279 × 7 = 8,953, you know 8,953 ÷ 1279 = 7 and 8,953 ÷ 7 = 1279. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Answer
5 × 1279 = 6,395 pencils. - Tickets cost $1279 each. How much do 8 tickets cost?
Answer
8 × $1279 = $10,232. - 7,674 chairs are set out in rows of 1279. How many rows are there?

Questions
What is 1279 × 12?
15,348.
What is half of 1279 × 8?
1279 × 8 = 10,232, and half of that is 5,116, which is 1279 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1279 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1279 contain nothing.
What is 1279 × 7 and 1279 × 8?
1279 × 7 = 8,953 and 1279 × 8 = 10,232. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 19,185 in the 1279 times table?
Yes: 19,185 ÷ 1279 = 15 with no remainder. 19,186 is not, because dividing it by 1279 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1279 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.
