Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.
- Split it into tens and ones: 1999 × k = 1990 × k + 9 × k.
- Each answer is 1999 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 1999.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 1999 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 1999 away: 19,990 − 1999 = 17,991. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 1999: 19,990 + 1999 = 21,989. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 1999 → 3,998 → 7,996.
Every multiple of 1999 is at least 1999, so there are none below 100 and 0 below 1,000. A number is in the 1999 times table exactly when it divides by 1999 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 1999 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 1999 × 1 = 1999 is odd, 1999 × 2 = 3,998 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 1999 × 10 = 19,990, and 1999 × 100 = 199,900. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 19,990 is 9,995.
Using the 1999 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 1999 × 7 = 13,993, you know 13,993 ÷ 1999 = 7 and 13,993 ÷ 7 = 1999. 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 1999 pencils. How many pencils are in 6 boxes?
Answer
6 × 1999 = 11,994 pencils. - Tickets cost $1999 each. How much do 6 tickets cost?
Answer
6 × $1999 = $11,994. - 15,992 chairs are set out in rows of 1999. How many rows are there?
Answer
15,992 ÷ 1999 = 8 rows. - A plant grows 1999 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 12 weeks?
Answer
12 × 1999 = 23,988 millimetres.
Questions
What is 1999 × 12?
23,988.
What is half of 1999 × 8?
1999 × 8 = 15,992, and half of that is 7,996, which is 1999 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 1999 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 1999 contain nothing.
What is 1999 × 7 and 1999 × 8?
1999 × 7 = 13,993 and 1999 × 8 = 15,992. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 29,985 in the 1999 times table?
Yes: 29,985 ÷ 1999 = 15 with no remainder. 29,986 is not, because dividing it by 1999 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 1999 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.
