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: 1561 × k = 1560 × k + 1 × k.
- Each answer is 1561 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1561.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 1561 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1561 away: 15,610 − 1561 = 14,049. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1561: 15,610 + 1561 = 17,171. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1561 → 3,122 → 6,244.
Every multiple of 1561 is at least 1561, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1561 times table exactly when it divides by 1561 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1561 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 1561 × 1 = 1561 is odd, 1561 × 2 = 3,122 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1561 × 10 = 15,610, and 1561 × 100 = 156,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 15,610 is 7,805.
Using the 1561 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1561 × 7 = 10,927, you know 10,927 ÷ 1561 = 7 and 10,927 ÷ 7 = 1561. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

18,732.
What is half of 1561 × 8?
1561 × 8 = 12,488, and half of that is 6,244, which is 1561 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1561 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1561 contain nothing.
What is 1561 × 7 and 1561 × 8?
1561 × 7 = 10,927 and 1561 × 8 = 12,488. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 23,415 in the 1561 times table?
Yes: 23,415 ÷ 1561 = 15 with no remainder. 23,416 is not, because dividing it by 1561 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1561 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.
