Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 551 × k = 550 × k + 1 × k.
  • Each answer is 551 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 551.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 551 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 551 away: 5,510 − 551 = 4,959. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 551: 5,510 + 551 = 6,061. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 551 → 1,102 → 2,204.

Every multiple of 551 is at least 551, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 551 times table exactly when it divides by 551 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 551 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 551 × 1 = 551 is odd, 551 × 2 = 1,102 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 551 × 10 = 5,510, and 551 × 100 = 55,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 5,510 is 2,755.

Using the 551 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 551 × 7 = 3,857, you know 3,857 ÷ 551 = 7 and 3,857 ÷ 7 = 551. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 551 × 12?

6,612.

What is half of 551 × 8?

551 × 8 = 4,408, and half of that is 2,204, which is 551 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 551 times 0?
