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: 239 × k = 230 × k + 9 × k.
- Each answer is 239 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 239.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 239 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 239 away: 2,390 − 239 = 2,151. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 239: 2,390 + 239 = 2,629. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 239 → 478 → 956.
Every multiple of 239 is at least 239, so there are none below 100 and 4 below 1,000. A number is in the 239 times table exactly when it divides by 239 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 239 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 239 × 1 = 239 is odd, 239 × 2 = 478 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 239 × 10 = 2,390, and 239 × 100 = 23,900. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,390 is 1,195.
Using the 239 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 239 × 7 = 1,673, you know 1,673 ÷ 239 = 7 and 1,673 ÷ 7 = 239. 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 239 pencils. How many pencils are in 9 boxes?
Answer
9 × 239 = 2,151 pencils. - Tickets cost $239 each. How much do 12 tickets cost?
Answer
12 × $239 = $2,868. - 1,434 chairs are set out in rows of 239. How many rows are there?
Answer
1,434 ÷ 239 = 6 rows. - A plant grows 239 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 10 weeks?
Answer
10 × 239 = 2,390 millimetres.
Questions
What is 239 × 12?
2,868.
What is half of 239 × 8?
239 × 8 = 1,912, and half of that is 956, which is 239 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 239 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 239 contain nothing.
What is 239 × 7 and 239 × 8?
239 × 7 = 1,673 and 239 × 8 = 1,912. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 3,585 in the 239 times table?
Yes: 3,585 ÷ 239 = 15 with no remainder. 3,586 is not, because dividing it by 239 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 239 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.
