Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 4, 8, 2, 6, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 254 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 254 × k = 250 × k + 4 × k.
  • Each answer is 254 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 254.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 254 times table is double the answer in the 127 times table: 127 × 6 = 762, so 254 × 6 = 1,524. To multiply 254 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 254 away: 2,540 − 254 = 2,286. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 254: 2,540 + 254 = 2,794. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 254 → 508 → 1,016.

Every multiple of 254 is at least 254, so there are none below 100 and 3 below 1,000. A number is in the 254 times table exactly when it divides by 254 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 254 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: 254 × 10 = 2,540, and 254 × 100 = 25,400. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,540 is 1,270.

Using the 254 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 254 × 7 = 1,778, you know 1,778 ÷ 254 = 7 and 1,778 ÷ 7 = 254. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 254 × 12?

3,048.

What is half of 254 × 8?

254 × 8 = 2,032, and half of that is 1,016, which is 254 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 254 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 254 contain nothing.

What is 254 × 7 and 254 × 8?

254 × 7 = 1,778 and 254 × 8 = 2,032. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 3,810 in the 254 times table?

Yes: 3,810 ÷ 254 = 15 with no remainder. 3,811 is not, because dividing it by 254 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 254 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.
