Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 2, 4, 6, 8, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 472 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 472 × k = 470 × k + 2 × k.
- Each answer is 472 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 472.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 472 times table is double the answer in the 236 times table: 236 × 6 = 1,416, so 472 × 6 = 2,832. To multiply 472 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 472 away: 4,720 − 472 = 4,248. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 472: 4,720 + 472 = 5,192. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 472 → 944 → 1,888.
Every multiple of 472 is at least 472, so there are none below 100 and 2 below 1,000. A number is in the 472 times table exactly when it divides by 472 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 472 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: 472 × 10 = 4,720, and 472 × 100 = 47,200. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 4,720 is 2,360.
Using the 472 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 472 × 7 = 3,304, you know 3,304 ÷ 472 = 7 and 3,304 ÷ 7 = 472. 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 472 pencils. How many pencils are in 8 boxes?
Answer
8 × 472 = 3,776 pencils. - Tickets cost $472 each. How much do 10 tickets cost?
Answer
10 × $472 = $4,720. - 3,776 chairs are set out in rows of 472. How many rows are there?
Answer
3,776 ÷ 472 = 8 rows. - A plant grows 472 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 9 weeks?
Answer
9 × 472 = 4,248 millimetres.
Questions
What is 472 × 12?
5,664.
What is half of 472 × 8?
472 × 8 = 3,776, and half of that is 1,888, which is 472 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 472 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 472 contain nothing.
What is 472 × 7 and 472 × 8?
472 × 7 = 3,304 and 472 × 8 = 3,776. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 7,080 in the 472 times table?
Yes: 7,080 ÷ 472 = 15 with no remainder. 7,081 is not, because dividing it by 472 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 472 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.
