Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.
- Split it into tens and ones: 589 × k = 580 × k + 9 × k.
- Each answer is 589 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 589.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 589 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 589 away: 5,890 − 589 = 5,301. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 589: 5,890 + 589 = 6,479. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 589 → 1,178 → 2,356.
Every multiple of 589 is at least 589, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 589 times table exactly when it divides by 589 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 589 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 589 × 1 = 589 is odd, 589 × 2 = 1,178 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 589 × 10 = 5,890, and 589 × 100 = 58,900. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 5,890 is 2,945.
Using the 589 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 589 × 7 = 4,123, you know 4,123 ÷ 589 = 7 and 4,123 ÷ 7 = 589. 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:
- A box holds 589 pencils. How many pencils are in 6 boxes?
Answer
6 × 589 = 3,534 pencils. - Tickets cost $589 each. How much do 12 tickets cost?
Answer
12 × $589 = $7,068. - 4,712 chairs are set out in rows of 589. How many rows are there?
Answer
4,712 ÷ 589 = 8 rows. - A plant grows 589 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 9 weeks?
Answer
9 × 589 = 5,301 millimetres.
Questions
What is 589 × 12?
7,068.
What is half of 589 × 8?
589 × 8 = 4,712, and half of that is 2,356, which is 589 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 589 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 589 contain nothing.
What is 589 × 7 and 589 × 8?
589 × 7 = 4,123 and 589 × 8 = 4,712. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 8,835 in the 589 times table?
Yes: 8,835 ÷ 589 = 15 with no remainder. 8,836 is not, because dividing it by 589 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 589 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.
