Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 557 × k = 550 × k + 7 × k.
  • Each answer is 557 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 557.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 557 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 557 away: 5,570 − 557 = 5,013. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 557: 5,570 + 557 = 6,127. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 557 → 1,114 → 2,228.

Every multiple of 557 is at least 557, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 557 times table exactly when it divides by 557 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 557 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 557 × 1 = 557 is odd, 557 × 2 = 1,114 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 557 × 10 = 5,570, and 557 × 100 = 55,700. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 5,570 is 2,785.

Using the 557 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 557 × 7 = 3,899, you know 3,899 ÷ 557 = 7 and 3,899 ÷ 7 = 557. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
