Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 1: 0.
- Every answer is even, because 290 is even.
- Every answer ends in 0 or 5.
- Split it into tens and ones: 290 × k = 290 × k + 0 × k.
- Each answer is 290 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 290.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 290 times table is double the answer in the 145 times table: 145 × 6 = 870, so 290 × 6 = 1,740. To multiply 290 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 290 away: 2,900 − 290 = 2,610. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 290: 2,900 + 290 = 3,190. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 290 → 580 → 1,160.
Every multiple of 290 is at least 290, so there are none below 100 and 3 below 1,000. A number is in the 290 times table exactly when it divides by 290 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 290 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: 290 × 10 = 2,900, and 290 × 100 = 29,000. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,900 is 1,450.
Using the 290 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 290 × 7 = 2,030, you know 2,030 ÷ 290 = 7 and 2,030 ÷ 7 = 290. 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 290 pencils. How many pencils are in 4 boxes?
Answer
4 × 290 = 1,160 pencils. - Tickets cost $290 each. How much do 5 tickets cost?
Answer
5 × $290 = $1,450. - 2,320 chairs are set out in rows of 290. How many rows are there?
Answer
2,320 ÷ 290 = 8 rows. - A plant grows 290 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 7 weeks?
Answer
7 × 290 = 2,030 millimetres.
Questions
What is 290 × 12?
3,480.
What is half of 290 × 8?
290 × 8 = 2,320, and half of that is 1,160, which is 290 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 290 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 290 contain nothing.
What is 290 × 7 and 290 × 8?
290 × 7 = 2,030 and 290 × 8 = 2,320. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 4,350 in the 290 times table?
Yes: 4,350 ÷ 290 = 15 with no remainder. 4,351 is not, because dividing it by 290 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 290 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.
