Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0.
- Split it into tens and ones: 237 × k = 230 × k + 7 × k.
- Each answer is 237 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 237.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 237 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 237 away: 2,370 − 237 = 2,133. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 237: 2,370 + 237 = 2,607. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 237 → 474 → 948.
Every multiple of 237 is at least 237, so there are none below 100 and 4 below 1,000. A number is in the 237 times table exactly when it divides by 237 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 237 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 237 × 1 = 237 is odd, 237 × 2 = 474 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 237 × 10 = 2,370, and 237 × 100 = 23,700. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,370 is 1,185.
Using the 237 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 237 × 7 = 1,659, you know 1,659 ÷ 237 = 7 and 1,659 ÷ 7 = 237. 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 237 pencils. How many pencils are in 9 boxes?
Answer
9 × 237 = 2,133 pencils. - Tickets cost $237 each. How much do 11 tickets cost?
Answer
11 × $237 = $2,607. - 1,185 chairs are set out in rows of 237. How many rows are there?
Answer
1,185 ÷ 237 = 5 rows. - A plant grows 237 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 11 weeks?
Answer
11 × 237 = 2,607 millimetres.
Questions
What is 237 × 12?
2,844.
What is half of 237 × 8?
237 × 8 = 1,896, and half of that is 948, which is 237 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 237 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 237 contain nothing.
What is 237 × 7 and 237 × 8?
237 × 7 = 1,659 and 237 × 8 = 1,896. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 3,555 in the 237 times table?
Yes: 3,555 ÷ 237 = 15 with no remainder. 3,556 is not, because dividing it by 237 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 237 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.
