Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 1: 0.
- Every answer is even, because 1990 is even.
- Every answer ends in 0 or 5.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1990 × k = 1990 × k + 0 × k.
- Each answer is 1990 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1990.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 1990 times table is double the answer in the 995 times table: 995 × 6 = 5,970, so 1990 × 6 = 11,940. To multiply 1990 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1990 away: 19,900 − 1990 = 17,910. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1990: 19,900 + 1990 = 21,890. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1990 → 3,980 → 7,960.
Every multiple of 1990 is at least 1990, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1990 times table exactly when it divides by 1990 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1990 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: 1990 × 10 = 19,900, and 1990 × 100 = 199,000. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 19,900 is 9,950.
Using the 1990 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1990 × 7 = 13,930, you know 13,930 ÷ 1990 = 7 and 13,930 ÷ 7 = 1990. 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 1990 pencils. How many pencils are in 7 boxes?
Answer
7 × 1990 = 13,930 pencils. - Tickets cost $1990 each. How much do 9 tickets cost?
Answer
9 × $1990 = $17,910. - 17,910 chairs are set out in rows of 1990. How many rows are there?
Answer
17,910 ÷ 1990 = 9 rows. - A plant grows 1990 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 7 weeks?
Answer
7 × 1990 = 13,930 millimetres.
Questions
What is 1990 × 12?
23,880.
What is half of 1990 × 8?
1990 × 8 = 15,920, and half of that is 7,960, which is 1990 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1990 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1990 contain nothing.
What is 1990 × 7 and 1990 × 8?
1990 × 7 = 13,930 and 1990 × 8 = 15,920. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 29,850 in the 1990 times table?
Yes: 29,850 ÷ 1990 = 15 with no remainder. 29,851 is not, because dividing it by 1990 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1990 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.
