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.
- The digits of every answer add up to a multiple of 9.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1557 × k = 1550 × k + 7 × k.
- Each answer is 1557 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1557.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 1557 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1557 away: 15,570 − 1557 = 14,013. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1557: 15,570 + 1557 = 17,127. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1557 → 3,114 → 6,228.
Every multiple of 1557 is at least 1557, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1557 times table exactly when it divides by 1557 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1557 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 1557 × 1 = 1557 is odd, 1557 × 2 = 3,114 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1557 × 10 = 15,570, and 1557 × 100 = 155,700. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 15,570 is 7,785.
Using the 1557 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1557 × 7 = 10,899, you know 10,899 ÷ 1557 = 7 and 10,899 ÷ 7 = 1557. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Answer
3 × 1557 = 4,671 pencils. - Tickets cost $1557 each. How much do 4 tickets cost?
Answer
4 × $1557 = $6,228. - 4,671 chairs are set out in rows of 1557. How many rows are there?

Questions
What is 1557 × 12?
18,684.
What is half of 1557 × 8?
1557 × 8 = 12,456, and half of that is 6,228, which is 1557 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1557 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1557 contain nothing.
What is 1557 × 7 and 1557 × 8?
1557 × 7 = 10,899 and 1557 × 8 = 12,456. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 23,355 in the 1557 times table?
Yes: 23,355 ÷ 1557 = 15 with no remainder. 23,356 is not, because dividing it by 1557 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1557 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.
