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: 229 × k = 220 × k + 9 × k.
- Each answer is 229 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 229.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 229 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 229 away: 2,290 − 229 = 2,061. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 229: 2,290 + 229 = 2,519. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 229 → 458 → 916.
Every multiple of 229 is at least 229, so there are none below 100 and 4 below 1,000. A number is in the 229 times table exactly when it divides by 229 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 229 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 229 × 1 = 229 is odd, 229 × 2 = 458 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 229 × 10 = 2,290, and 229 × 100 = 22,900. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,290 is 1,145.
Using the 229 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 229 × 7 = 1,603, you know 1,603 ÷ 229 = 7 and 1,603 ÷ 7 = 229. 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 229 pencils. How many pencils are in 8 boxes?
Answer
8 × 229 = 1,832 pencils. - Tickets cost $229 each. How much do 4 tickets cost?
Answer
4 × $229 = $916. - 1,374 chairs are set out in rows of 229. How many rows are there?
Answer
1,374 ÷ 229 = 6 rows. - A plant grows 229 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 8 weeks?
Answer
8 × 229 = 1,832 millimetres.
Questions
What is 229 × 12?
2,748.
What is half of 229 × 8?
229 × 8 = 1,832, and half of that is 916, which is 229 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 229 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 229 contain nothing.
What is 229 × 7 and 229 × 8?
229 × 7 = 1,603 and 229 × 8 = 1,832. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 3,435 in the 229 times table?
Yes: 3,435 ÷ 229 = 15 with no remainder. 3,436 is not, because dividing it by 229 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 229 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.
