Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 1: 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 550 is even.
  • Every answer ends in 0 or 5.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 550 × k = 550 × k + 0 × k.
  • Each answer is 550 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 550.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 550 times table is double the answer in the 275 times table: 275 × 6 = 1,650, so 550 × 6 = 3,300. To multiply 550 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 550 away: 5,500 − 550 = 4,950. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 550: 5,500 + 550 = 6,050. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 550 → 1,100 → 2,200.

Every multiple of 550 is at least 550, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 550 times table exactly when it divides by 550 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 550 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: 550 × 10 = 5,500, and 550 × 100 = 55,000. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 5,500 is 2,750.

Using the 550 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 550 × 7 = 3,850, you know 3,850 ÷ 550 = 7 and 3,850 ÷ 7 = 550. 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:

Questions

What is 550 × 12?

6,600.

What is half of 550 × 8?

550 × 8 = 4,400, and half of that is 2,200, which is 550 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 550 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 550 contain nothing.

What is 550 × 7 and 550 × 8?

550 × 7 = 3,850 and 550 × 8 = 4,400. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 8,250 in the 550 times table?

Yes: 8,250 ÷ 550 = 15 with no remainder. 8,251 is not, because dividing it by 550 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 550 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.
