Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 2, 4, 6, 8, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 1562 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1562 × k = 1560 × k + 2 × k.
- Each answer is 1562 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1562.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 1562 times table is double the answer in the 781 times table: 781 × 6 = 4,686, so 1562 × 6 = 9,372. To multiply 1562 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1562 away: 15,620 − 1562 = 14,058. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1562: 15,620 + 1562 = 17,182. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1562 → 3,124 → 6,248.
Every multiple of 1562 is at least 1562, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1562 times table exactly when it divides by 1562 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1562 is even, every answer in its table is even, which is a quick way to catch a wrong answer. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1562 × 10 = 15,620, and 1562 × 100 = 156,200. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 15,620 is 7,810.
Using the 1562 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1562 × 7 = 10,934, you know 10,934 ÷ 1562 = 7 and 10,934 ÷ 7 = 1562. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
