Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 1531 × k = 1530 × k + 1 × k.
  • Each answer is 1531 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1531.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 1531 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1531 away: 15,310 − 1531 = 13,779. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1531: 15,310 + 1531 = 16,841. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1531 → 3,062 → 6,124.

Every multiple of 1531 is at least 1531, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1531 times table exactly when it divides by 1531 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 1531 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 1531 × 1 = 1531 is odd, 1531 × 2 = 3,062 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1531 × 10 = 15,310, and 1531 × 100 = 153,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 15,310 is 7,655.

Using the 1531 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 1531 × 7 = 10,717, you know 10,717 ÷ 1531 = 7 and 10,717 ÷ 7 = 1531. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
