Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 1: 0.
- Every answer is even, because 140 is even.
- Every answer ends in 0 or 5.
- Split it into tens and ones: 140 × k = 140 × k + 0 × k.
- Each answer is 140 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 140.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 140 times table is double the answer in the 70 times table: 70 × 6 = 420, so 140 × 6 = 840. To multiply 140 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 140 away: 1,400 − 140 = 1,260. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 140: 1,400 + 140 = 1,540. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 140 → 280 → 560.
Every multiple of 140 is at least 140, so there are none below 100 and 7 below 1,000. A number is in the 140 times table exactly when it divides by 140 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 140 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: 140 × 10 = 1,400, and 140 × 100 = 14,000. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 1,400 is 700.
Using the 140 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 140 × 7 = 980, you know 980 ÷ 140 = 7 and 980 ÷ 7 = 140. 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 140 pencils. How many pencils are in 3 boxes?
Answer
3 × 140 = 420 pencils. - Tickets cost $140 each. How much do 10 tickets cost?
Answer
10 × $140 = $1,400. - 840 chairs are set out in rows of 140. How many rows are there?
Answer
840 ÷ 140 = 6 rows. - A plant grows 140 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 12 weeks?
Answer
12 × 140 = 1,680 millimetres.
Questions
What is 140 × 12?
1,680.
What is half of 140 × 8?
140 × 8 = 1,120, and half of that is 560, which is 140 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 140 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 140 contain nothing.
What is 140 × 7 and 140 × 8?
140 × 7 = 980 and 140 × 8 = 1,120. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 2,100 in the 140 times table?
Yes: 2,100 ÷ 140 = 15 with no remainder. 2,101 is not, because dividing it by 140 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 140 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.
