Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 8, 6, 4, 2, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 178 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 178 × k = 170 × k + 8 × k.
- Each answer is 178 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 178.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 178 times table is double the answer in the 89 times table: 89 × 6 = 534, so 178 × 6 = 1,068. To multiply 178 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 178 away: 1,780 − 178 = 1,602. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 178: 1,780 + 178 = 1,958. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 178 → 356 → 712.
Every multiple of 178 is at least 178, so there are none below 100 and 5 below 1,000. A number is in the 178 times table exactly when it divides by 178 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 178 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: 178 × 10 = 1,780, and 178 × 100 = 17,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 1,780 is 890.
Using the 178 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 178 × 7 = 1,246, you know 1,246 ÷ 178 = 7 and 1,246 ÷ 7 = 178. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Word problems
Times tables are most useful when you can spot them in a question. Try these, then open each one to check:
- A box holds 178 pencils. How many pencils are in 5 boxes?
Answer
5 × 178 = 890 pencils. - Tickets cost $178 each. How much do 8 tickets cost?
Answer
8 × $178 = $1,424. - 534 chairs are set out in rows of 178. How many rows are there?
Answer
534 ÷ 178 = 3 rows. - A plant grows 178 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 9 weeks?
Answer
9 × 178 = 1,602 millimetres.
Questions
What is 178 × 12?
2,136.
What is half of 178 × 8?
178 × 8 = 1,424, and half of that is 712, which is 178 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 178 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 178 contain nothing.
What is 178 × 7 and 178 × 8?
178 × 7 = 1,246 and 178 × 8 = 1,424. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 2,670 in the 178 times table?
Yes: 2,670 ÷ 178 = 15 with no remainder. 2,671 is not, because dividing it by 178 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 178 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.
