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: 203 × k = 200 × k + 3 × k.
  • Each answer is 203 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 203.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 203 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 203 away: 2,030 − 203 = 1,827. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 203: 2,030 + 203 = 2,233. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 203 → 406 → 812.

Every multiple of 203 is at least 203, so there are none below 100 and 4 below 1,000. A number is in the 203 times table exactly when it divides by 203 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 203 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 203 × 1 = 203 is odd, 203 × 2 = 406 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 203 × 10 = 2,030, and 203 × 100 = 20,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,030 is 1,015.

Using the 203 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 203 × 7 = 1,421, you know 1,421 ÷ 203 = 7 and 1,421 ÷ 7 = 203. 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:

  1. A box holds 203 pencils. How many pencils are in 7 boxes?
    Answer7 × 203 = 1,421 pencils.
  2. Tickets cost $203 each. How much do 10 tickets cost?
    Answer10 × $203 = $2,030.
  3. 1,827 chairs are set out in rows of 203. How many rows are there?
    Answer1,827 ÷ 203 = 9 rows.
  4. A plant grows 203 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 9 weeks?
    Answer9 × 203 = 1,827 millimetres.

Questions

What is 203 × 12?

2,436.

What is half of 203 × 8?

203 × 8 = 1,624, and half of that is 812, which is 203 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 203 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 203 contain nothing.

What is 203 × 7 and 203 × 8?

203 × 7 = 1,421 and 203 × 8 = 1,624. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 3,045 in the 203 times table?

Yes: 3,045 ÷ 203 = 15 with no remainder. 3,046 is not, because dividing it by 203 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 203 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.
