Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 6, 2, 8, 4, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 596 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 596 × k = 590 × k + 6 × k.
- Each answer is 596 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 596.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 596 times table is double the answer in the 298 times table: 298 × 6 = 1,788, so 596 × 6 = 3,576. To multiply 596 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 596 away: 5,960 − 596 = 5,364. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 596: 5,960 + 596 = 6,556. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 596 → 1,192 → 2,384.
Every multiple of 596 is at least 596, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 596 times table exactly when it divides by 596 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 596 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: 596 × 10 = 5,960, and 596 × 100 = 59,600. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 5,960 is 2,980.
Using the 596 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 596 × 7 = 4,172, you know 4,172 ÷ 596 = 7 and 4,172 ÷ 7 = 596. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions
What is 596 × 12?
7,152.
What is half of 596 × 8?
596 × 8 = 4,768, and half of that is 2,384, which is 596 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 596 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 596 contain nothing.
What is 596 × 7 and 596 × 8?
596 × 7 = 4,172 and 596 × 8 = 4,768. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Yes: 8,940 ÷ 596 = 15 with no remainder. 8,941 is not, because dividing it by 596 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 596 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.
