Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1559 × k = 1550 × k + 9 × k.
- Each answer is 1559 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1559.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 1559 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1559 away: 15,590 − 1559 = 14,031. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1559: 15,590 + 1559 = 17,149. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1559 → 3,118 → 6,236.
Every multiple of 1559 is at least 1559, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1559 times table exactly when it divides by 1559 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1559 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 1559 × 1 = 1559 is odd, 1559 × 2 = 3,118 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1559 × 10 = 15,590, and 1559 × 100 = 155,900. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 15,590 is 7,795.
Using the 1559 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1559 × 7 = 10,913, you know 10,913 ÷ 1559 = 7 and 10,913 ÷ 7 = 1559. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
