Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 1543 × k = 1540 × k + 3 × k.
  • Each answer is 1543 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1543.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 1543 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1543 away: 15,430 − 1543 = 13,887. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1543: 15,430 + 1543 = 16,973. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1543 → 3,086 → 6,172.

Every multiple of 1543 is at least 1543, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1543 times table exactly when it divides by 1543 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 1543 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 1543 × 1 = 1543 is odd, 1543 × 2 = 3,086 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1543 × 10 = 15,430, and 1543 × 100 = 154,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 15,430 is 7,715.

Using the 1543 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 1543 × 7 = 10,801, you know 10,801 ÷ 1543 = 7 and 10,801 ÷ 7 = 1543. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
