Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 4, 8, 2, 6, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 54 is even.
  • The digits of every answer add up to a multiple of 9.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 54 × k = 50 × k + 4 × k.
  • Each answer is 54 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 54.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 54 times table is double the answer in the 27 times table: 27 × 6 = 162, so 54 × 6 = 324. To multiply 54 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 54 away: 540 − 54 = 486. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 54: 540 + 54 = 594. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 54 → 108 → 216.

There are 1 multiples of 54 below 100, and 18 below 1,000. A number is in the 54 times table exactly when it divides by 54 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 54 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: 54 × 10 = 540, and 54 × 100 = 5,400. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 540 is 270.

Using the 54 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 54 × 7 = 378, you know 378 ÷ 54 = 7 and 378 ÷ 7 = 54. 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:

  1. A box holds 54 pencils. How many pencils are in 6 boxes?
    Answer6 × 54 = 324 pencils.
  2. Tickets cost $54 each. How much do 7 tickets cost?
    Answer7 × $54 = $378.
  3. 216 chairs are set out in rows of 54. How many rows are there?
    Answer216 ÷ 54 = 4 rows.
  4. A plant grows 54 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 6 weeks?
    Answer6 × 54 = 324 millimetres.

Questions

What is 54 × 12?

648.

What is half of 54 × 8?

54 × 8 = 432, and half of that is 216, which is 54 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 54 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 54 contain nothing.

What is 54 × 7 and 54 × 8?

54 × 7 = 378 and 54 × 8 = 432. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 810 in the 54 times table?

Yes: 810 ÷ 54 = 15 with no remainder. 811 is not, because dividing it by 54 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 54 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.
