Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 283 × k = 280 × k + 3 × k.
  • Each answer is 283 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 283.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 283 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 283 away: 2,830 − 283 = 2,547. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 283: 2,830 + 283 = 3,113. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 283 → 566 → 1,132.

Every multiple of 283 is at least 283, so there are none below 100 and 3 below 1,000. A number is in the 283 times table exactly when it divides by 283 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 283 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 283 × 1 = 283 is odd, 283 × 2 = 566 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 283 × 10 = 2,830, and 283 × 100 = 28,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,830 is 1,415.

Using the 283 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 283 × 7 = 1,981, you know 1,981 ÷ 283 = 7 and 1,981 ÷ 7 = 283. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 283 × 12?

3,396.

What is half of 283 × 8?

283 × 8 = 2,264, and half of that is 1,132, which is 283 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 283 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 283 contain nothing.

What is 283 × 7 and 283 × 8?

283 × 7 = 1,981 and 283 × 8 = 2,264. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
