Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 6, 2, 8, 4, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 266 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 266 × k = 260 × k + 6 × k.
- Each answer is 266 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 266.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 266 times table is double the answer in the 133 times table: 133 × 6 = 798, so 266 × 6 = 1,596. To multiply 266 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 266 away: 2,660 − 266 = 2,394. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 266: 2,660 + 266 = 2,926. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 266 → 532 → 1,064.
Every multiple of 266 is at least 266, so there are none below 100 and 3 below 1,000. A number is in the 266 times table exactly when it divides by 266 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 266 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: 266 × 10 = 2,660, and 266 × 100 = 26,600. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,660 is 1,330.
Using the 266 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 266 × 7 = 1,862, you know 1,862 ÷ 266 = 7 and 1,862 ÷ 7 = 266. 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 266 pencils. How many pencils are in 4 boxes?
Answer
4 × 266 = 1,064 pencils. - Tickets cost $266 each. How much do 6 tickets cost?
Answer
6 × $266 = $1,596. - 1,862 chairs are set out in rows of 266. How many rows are there?
Answer
1,862 ÷ 266 = 7 rows. - A plant grows 266 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 12 weeks?
Answer
12 × 266 = 3,192 millimetres.
Questions
What is 266 × 12?
3,192.
What is half of 266 × 8?
266 × 8 = 2,128, and half of that is 1,064, which is 266 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 266 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 266 contain nothing.
What is 266 × 7 and 266 × 8?
266 × 7 = 1,862 and 266 × 8 = 2,128. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 3,990 in the 266 times table?
Yes: 3,990 ÷ 266 = 15 with no remainder. 3,991 is not, because dividing it by 266 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 266 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.
