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: 1983 × k = 1980 × k + 3 × k.
- Each answer is 1983 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1983.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 1983 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1983 away: 19,830 − 1983 = 17,847. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1983: 19,830 + 1983 = 21,813. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1983 → 3,966 → 7,932.
Every multiple of 1983 is at least 1983, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1983 times table exactly when it divides by 1983 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1983 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 1983 × 1 = 1983 is odd, 1983 × 2 = 3,966 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1983 × 10 = 19,830, and 1983 × 100 = 198,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 19,830 is 9,915.
Using the 1983 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1983 × 7 = 13,881, you know 13,881 ÷ 1983 = 7 and 13,881 ÷ 7 = 1983. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

23,796.
What is half of 1983 × 8?
1983 × 8 = 15,864, and half of that is 7,932, which is 1983 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1983 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1983 contain nothing.
What is 1983 × 7 and 1983 × 8?
1983 × 7 = 13,881 and 1983 × 8 = 15,864. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 29,745 in the 1983 times table?
Yes: 29,745 ÷ 1983 = 15 with no remainder. 29,746 is not, because dividing it by 1983 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1983 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.
