Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 2, 4, 6, 8, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 222 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 222 × k = 220 × k + 2 × k.
  • Each answer is 222 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 222.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 222 times table is double the answer in the 111 times table: 111 × 6 = 666, so 222 × 6 = 1,332. To multiply 222 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 222 away: 2,220 − 222 = 1,998. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 222: 2,220 + 222 = 2,442. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 222 → 444 → 888.

Every multiple of 222 is at least 222, so there are none below 100 and 4 below 1,000. A number is in the 222 times table exactly when it divides by 222 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 222 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: 222 × 10 = 2,220, and 222 × 100 = 22,200. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,220 is 1,110.

Using the 222 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 222 × 7 = 1,554, you know 1,554 ÷ 222 = 7 and 1,554 ÷ 7 = 222. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 222 × 12?

2,664.

What is half of 222 × 8?

222 × 8 = 1,776, and half of that is 888, which is 222 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 222 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 222 contain nothing.

What is 222 × 7 and 222 × 8?

222 × 7 = 1,554 and 222 × 8 = 1,776. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 3,330 in the 222 times table?

Yes: 3,330 ÷ 222 = 15 with no remainder. 3,331 is not, because dividing it by 222 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 222 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.
