Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 8, 6, 4, 2, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 298 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 298 × k = 290 × k + 8 × k.
- Each answer is 298 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 298.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 298 times table is double the answer in the 149 times table: 149 × 6 = 894, so 298 × 6 = 1,788. To multiply 298 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 298 away: 2,980 − 298 = 2,682. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 298: 2,980 + 298 = 3,278. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 298 → 596 → 1,192.
Every multiple of 298 is at least 298, so there are none below 100 and 3 below 1,000. A number is in the 298 times table exactly when it divides by 298 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 298 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: 298 × 10 = 2,980, and 298 × 100 = 29,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 2,980 is 1,490.
Using the 298 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 298 × 7 = 2,086, you know 2,086 ÷ 298 = 7 and 2,086 ÷ 7 = 298. 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 298 pencils. How many pencils are in 6 boxes?
Answer
6 × 298 = 1,788 pencils. - Tickets cost $298 each. How much do 6 tickets cost?
Answer
6 × $298 = $1,788. - 1,192 chairs are set out in rows of 298. How many rows are there?
Answer
1,192 ÷ 298 = 4 rows. - A plant grows 298 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 11 weeks?
Answer
11 × 298 = 3,278 millimetres.
Questions
What is 298 × 12?
3,576.
What is half of 298 × 8?
298 × 8 = 2,384, and half of that is 1,192, which is 298 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 298 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 298 contain nothing.
What is 298 × 7 and 298 × 8?
298 × 7 = 2,086 and 298 × 8 = 2,384. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 4,470 in the 298 times table?
Yes: 4,470 ÷ 298 = 15 with no remainder. 4,471 is not, because dividing it by 298 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 298 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.
