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: 61 × k = 60 × k + 1 × k.
  • Each answer is 61 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 61.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 61 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 61 away: 610 − 61 = 549. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 61: 610 + 61 = 671. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 61 → 122 → 244.

There are 1 multiples of 61 below 100, and 16 below 1,000. A number is in the 61 times table exactly when it divides by 61 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 61 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 61 × 1 = 61 is odd, 61 × 2 = 122 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 61 × 10 = 610, and 61 × 100 = 6,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 610 is 305.

Using the 61 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 61 × 7 = 427, you know 427 ÷ 61 = 7 and 427 ÷ 7 = 61. 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:

    Answer6 × 61 = 366 pencils.
  2. Tickets cost $61 each. How much do 5 tickets cost?
    Answer5 × $61 = $305.
  3. 305 chairs are set out in rows of 61. How many rows are there?
    Answer305 ÷ 61 = 5 rows.
  4. A plant grows 61 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 7 weeks?

Questions

What is 61 × 12?

732.

What is half of 61 × 8?

61 × 8 = 488, and half of that is 244, which is 61 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 61 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 61 contain nothing.

What is 61 × 7 and 61 × 8?

61 × 7 = 427 and 61 × 8 = 488. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 915 in the 61 times table?

Yes: 915 ÷ 61 = 15 with no remainder. 916 is not, because dividing it by 61 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 61 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.
