Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 1: 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 480 is even.
  • Every answer ends in 0 or 5.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 480 × k = 480 × k + 0 × k.
  • Each answer is 480 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 480.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 480 times table is double the answer in the 240 times table: 240 × 6 = 1,440, so 480 × 6 = 2,880. To multiply 480 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 480 away: 4,800 − 480 = 4,320. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 480: 4,800 + 480 = 5,280. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 480 → 960 → 1,920.

Every multiple of 480 is at least 480, so there are none below 100 and 2 below 1,000. A number is in the 480 times table exactly when it divides by 480 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 480 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: 480 × 10 = 4,800, and 480 × 100 = 48,000. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 4,800 is 2,400.

Using the 480 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 480 × 7 = 3,360, you know 3,360 ÷ 480 = 7 and 3,360 ÷ 7 = 480. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 480 × 12?

5,760.

What is half of 480 × 8?

480 × 8 = 3,840, and half of that is 1,920, which is 480 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 480 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 480 contain nothing.

What is 480 × 7 and 480 × 8?

480 × 7 = 3,360 and 480 × 8 = 3,840. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 7,200 in the 480 times table?

Yes: 7,200 ÷ 480 = 15 with no remainder. 7,201 is not, because dividing it by 480 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 480 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.
