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: 561 × k = 560 × k + 1 × k.
  • Each answer is 561 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 561.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 561 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 561 away: 5,610 − 561 = 5,049. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 561: 5,610 + 561 = 6,171. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 561 → 1,122 → 2,244.

Every multiple of 561 is at least 561, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 561 times table exactly when it divides by 561 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 561 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 561 × 1 = 561 is odd, 561 × 2 = 1,122 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 561 × 10 = 5,610, and 561 × 100 = 56,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 5,610 is 2,805.

Using the 561 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 561 × 7 = 3,927, you know 3,927 ÷ 561 = 7 and 3,927 ÷ 7 = 561. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
