Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 6, 2, 8, 4, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 196 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 196 × k = 190 × k + 6 × k.
  • Each answer is 196 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 196.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 196 times table is double the answer in the 98 times table: 98 × 6 = 588, so 196 × 6 = 1,176. To multiply 196 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 196 away: 1,960 − 196 = 1,764. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 196: 1,960 + 196 = 2,156. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 196 → 392 → 784.

Every multiple of 196 is at least 196, so there are none below 100 and 5 below 1,000. A number is in the 196 times table exactly when it divides by 196 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 196 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: 196 × 10 = 1,960, and 196 × 100 = 19,600. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 1,960 is 980.

Using the 196 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 196 × 7 = 1,372, you know 1,372 ÷ 196 = 7 and 1,372 ÷ 7 = 196. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
