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: 223 × k = 220 × k + 3 × k.
- Each answer is 223 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 223.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 223 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 223 away: 2,230 − 223 = 2,007. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 223: 2,230 + 223 = 2,453. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 223 → 446 → 892.
Every multiple of 223 is at least 223, so there are none below 100 and 4 below 1,000. A number is in the 223 times table exactly when it divides by 223 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 223 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 223 × 1 = 223 is odd, 223 × 2 = 446 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 223 × 10 = 2,230, and 223 × 100 = 22,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,230 is 1,115.
Using the 223 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 223 × 7 = 1,561, you know 1,561 ÷ 223 = 7 and 1,561 ÷ 7 = 223. 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 223 pencils. How many pencils are in 8 boxes?
Answer
8 × 223 = 1,784 pencils. - Tickets cost $223 each. How much do 12 tickets cost?
Answer
12 × $223 = $2,676. - 1,784 chairs are set out in rows of 223. How many rows are there?
Answer
1,784 ÷ 223 = 8 rows. - A plant grows 223 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 8 weeks?
Answer
8 × 223 = 1,784 millimetres.
Questions
What is 223 × 12?
2,676.
What is half of 223 × 8?
223 × 8 = 1,784, and half of that is 892, which is 223 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 223 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 223 contain nothing.
What is 223 × 7 and 223 × 8?
223 × 7 = 1,561 and 223 × 8 = 1,784. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 3,345 in the 223 times table?
Yes: 3,345 ÷ 223 = 15 with no remainder. 3,346 is not, because dividing it by 223 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 223 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.
