Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 147 × k = 140 × k + 7 × k.
  • Each answer is 147 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 147.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 147 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 147 away: 1,470 − 147 = 1,323. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 147: 1,470 + 147 = 1,617. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 147 → 294 → 588.

Every multiple of 147 is at least 147, so there are none below 100 and 6 below 1,000. A number is in the 147 times table exactly when it divides by 147 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 147 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 147 × 1 = 147 is odd, 147 × 2 = 294 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 147 × 10 = 1,470, and 147 × 100 = 14,700. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 1,470 is 735.

Using the 147 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 147 × 7 = 1,029, you know 1,029 ÷ 147 = 7 and 1,029 ÷ 7 = 147. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 147 × 12?

1,764.

What is half of 147 × 8?

147 × 8 = 1,176, and half of that is 588, which is 147 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 147 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 147 contain nothing.

What is 147 × 7 and 147 × 8?

147 × 7 = 1,029 and 147 × 8 = 1,176. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Yes: 2,205 ÷ 147 = 15 with no remainder. 2,206 is not, because dividing it by 147 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 147 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.
