Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 291 × k = 290 × k + 1 × k.
  • Each answer is 291 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 291.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 291 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 291 away: 2,910 − 291 = 2,619. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 291: 2,910 + 291 = 3,201. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 291 → 582 → 1,164.

Every multiple of 291 is at least 291, so there are none below 100 and 3 below 1,000. A number is in the 291 times table exactly when it divides by 291 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 291 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 291 × 1 = 291 is odd, 291 × 2 = 582 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 291 × 10 = 2,910, and 291 × 100 = 29,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,910 is 1,455.

Using the 291 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 291 × 7 = 2,037, you know 2,037 ÷ 291 = 7 and 2,037 ÷ 7 = 291. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 291 × 12?

3,492.

What is half of 291 × 8?

291 × 8 = 2,328, and half of that is 1,164, which is 291 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 291 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 291 contain nothing.

What is 291 × 7 and 291 × 8?

291 × 7 = 2,037 and 291 × 8 = 2,328. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 4,365 in the 291 times table?

Yes: 4,365 ÷ 291 = 15 with no remainder. 4,366 is not, because dividing it by 291 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 291 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.
