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: 293 × k = 290 × k + 3 × k.
- Each answer is 293 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 293.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 293 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 293 away: 2,930 − 293 = 2,637. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 293: 2,930 + 293 = 3,223. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 293 → 586 → 1,172.
Every multiple of 293 is at least 293, so there are none below 100 and 3 below 1,000. A number is in the 293 times table exactly when it divides by 293 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 293 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 293 × 1 = 293 is odd, 293 × 2 = 586 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 293 × 10 = 2,930, and 293 × 100 = 29,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,930 is 1,465.
Using the 293 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 293 × 7 = 2,051, you know 2,051 ÷ 293 = 7 and 2,051 ÷ 7 = 293. 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 293 pencils. How many pencils are in 4 boxes?
Answer
4 × 293 = 1,172 pencils. - Tickets cost $293 each. How much do 4 tickets cost?
Answer
4 × $293 = $1,172. - 1,172 chairs are set out in rows of 293. How many rows are there?
Answer
1,172 ÷ 293 = 4 rows. - A plant grows 293 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 10 weeks?
Answer
10 × 293 = 2,930 millimetres.
Questions
What is 293 × 12?
3,516.
What is half of 293 × 8?
293 × 8 = 2,344, and half of that is 1,172, which is 293 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 293 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 293 contain nothing.
What is 293 × 7 and 293 × 8?
293 × 7 = 2,051 and 293 × 8 = 2,344. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 4,395 in the 293 times table?
Yes: 4,395 ÷ 293 = 15 with no remainder. 4,396 is not, because dividing it by 293 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 293 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.
