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 498 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 498 × k = 490 × k + 8 × k.
  • Each answer is 498 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 498.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 498 times table is double the answer in the 249 times table: 249 × 6 = 1,494, so 498 × 6 = 2,988. To multiply 498 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 498 away: 4,980 − 498 = 4,482. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 498: 4,980 + 498 = 5,478. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 498 → 996 → 1,992.

Every multiple of 498 is at least 498, so there are none below 100 and 2 below 1,000. A number is in the 498 times table exactly when it divides by 498 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 498 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: 498 × 10 = 4,980, and 498 × 100 = 49,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 4,980 is 2,490.

Using the 498 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 498 × 7 = 3,486, you know 3,486 ÷ 498 = 7 and 3,486 ÷ 7 = 498. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
