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 408 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 408 × k = 400 × k + 8 × k.
- Each answer is 408 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 408.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 408 times table is double the answer in the 204 times table: 204 × 6 = 1,224, so 408 × 6 = 2,448. To multiply 408 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 408 away: 4,080 − 408 = 3,672. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 408: 4,080 + 408 = 4,488. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 408 → 816 → 1,632.
Every multiple of 408 is at least 408, so there are none below 100 and 2 below 1,000. A number is in the 408 times table exactly when it divides by 408 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 408 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: 408 × 10 = 4,080, and 408 × 100 = 40,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 4,080 is 2,040.
Using the 408 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 408 × 7 = 2,856, you know 2,856 ÷ 408 = 7 and 2,856 ÷ 7 = 408. 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 408 pencils. How many pencils are in 5 boxes?
Answer
5 × 408 = 2,040 pencils. - Tickets cost $408 each. How much do 9 tickets cost?
Answer
9 × $408 = $3,672. - 2,856 chairs are set out in rows of 408. How many rows are there?
Answer
2,856 ÷ 408 = 7 rows. - A plant grows 408 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 10 weeks?
Answer
10 × 408 = 4,080 millimetres.
Questions
What is 408 × 12?
4,896.
What is half of 408 × 8?
408 × 8 = 3,264, and half of that is 1,632, which is 408 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 408 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 408 contain nothing.
What is 408 × 7 and 408 × 8?
408 × 7 = 2,856 and 408 × 8 = 3,264. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 6,120 in the 408 times table?
Yes: 6,120 ÷ 408 = 15 with no remainder. 6,121 is not, because dividing it by 408 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 408 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.
