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: 597 × k = 590 × k + 7 × k.
- Each answer is 597 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 597.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 597 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 597 away: 5,970 − 597 = 5,373. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 597: 5,970 + 597 = 6,567. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 597 → 1,194 → 2,388.
Every multiple of 597 is at least 597, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 597 times table exactly when it divides by 597 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 597 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 597 × 1 = 597 is odd, 597 × 2 = 1,194 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 597 × 10 = 5,970, and 597 × 100 = 59,700. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 5,970 is 2,985.
Using the 597 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 597 × 7 = 4,179, you know 4,179 ÷ 597 = 7 and 4,179 ÷ 7 = 597. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Answer
9 × 597 = 5,373 pencils. - Tickets cost $597 each. How much do 7 tickets cost?
Answer
7 × $597 = $4,179. - 1,194 chairs are set out in rows of 597. How many rows are there?

Questions
What is 597 × 12?
7,164.
What is half of 597 × 8?
597 × 8 = 4,776, and half of that is 2,388, which is 597 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 597 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 597 contain nothing.
What is 597 × 7 and 597 × 8?
597 × 7 = 4,179 and 597 × 8 = 4,776. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 8,955 in the 597 times table?
Yes: 8,955 ÷ 597 = 15 with no remainder. 8,956 is not, because dividing it by 597 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 597 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.
