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: 173 × k = 170 × k + 3 × k.
  • Each answer is 173 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 173.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 173 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 173 away: 1,730 − 173 = 1,557. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 173: 1,730 + 173 = 1,903. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 173 → 346 → 692.

Every multiple of 173 is at least 173, so there are none below 100 and 5 below 1,000. A number is in the 173 times table exactly when it divides by 173 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 173 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 173 × 1 = 173 is odd, 173 × 2 = 346 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 173 × 10 = 1,730, and 173 × 100 = 17,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 1,730 is 865.

Using the 173 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 173 × 7 = 1,211, you know 1,211 ÷ 173 = 7 and 1,211 ÷ 7 = 173. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 173 × 12?

2,076.

What is half of 173 × 8?

173 × 8 = 1,384, and half of that is 692, which is 173 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 173 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 173 contain nothing.

What is 173 × 7 and 173 × 8?

173 × 7 = 1,211 and 173 × 8 = 1,384. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
