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 1968 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1968 × k = 1960 × k + 8 × k.
- Each answer is 1968 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1968.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 1968 times table is double the answer in the 984 times table: 984 × 6 = 5,904, so 1968 × 6 = 11,808. To multiply 1968 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1968 away: 19,680 − 1968 = 17,712. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1968: 19,680 + 1968 = 21,648. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1968 → 3,936 → 7,872.
Every multiple of 1968 is at least 1968, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1968 times table exactly when it divides by 1968 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1968 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: 1968 × 10 = 19,680, and 1968 × 100 = 196,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 19,680 is 9,840.
Using the 1968 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1968 × 7 = 13,776, you know 13,776 ÷ 1968 = 7 and 13,776 ÷ 7 = 1968. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
