Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 6, 2, 8, 4, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 496 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 496 × k = 490 × k + 6 × k.
  • Each answer is 496 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 496.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 496 times table is double the answer in the 248 times table: 248 × 6 = 1,488, so 496 × 6 = 2,976. To multiply 496 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 496 away: 4,960 − 496 = 4,464. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 496: 4,960 + 496 = 5,456. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 496 → 992 → 1,984.

Every multiple of 496 is at least 496, so there are none below 100 and 2 below 1,000. A number is in the 496 times table exactly when it divides by 496 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 496 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: 496 × 10 = 4,960, and 496 × 100 = 49,600. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 4,960 is 2,480.

Using the 496 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 496 × 7 = 3,472, you know 3,472 ÷ 496 = 7 and 3,472 ÷ 7 = 496. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
