Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 8, 6, 4, 2, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 68 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 68 × k = 60 × k + 8 × k.
  • Each answer is 68 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 68.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 68 times table is double the answer in the 34 times table: 34 × 6 = 204, so 68 × 6 = 408. To multiply 68 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 68 away: 680 − 68 = 612. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 68: 680 + 68 = 748. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 68 → 136 → 272.

There are 1 multiples of 68 below 100, and 14 below 1,000. A number is in the 68 times table exactly when it divides by 68 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 68 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: 68 × 10 = 680, and 68 × 100 = 6,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 680 is 340.

Using the 68 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 68 × 7 = 476, you know 476 ÷ 68 = 7 and 476 ÷ 7 = 68. 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 × 68 = 408 pencils.
  2. Tickets cost $68 each. How much do 5 tickets cost?
    Answer5 × $68 = $340.
  3. 408 chairs are set out in rows of 68. How many rows are there?
    Answer408 ÷ 68 = 6 rows.
  4. A plant grows 68 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 9 weeks?

Questions

What is 68 × 12?

816.

What is half of 68 × 8?

68 × 8 = 544, and half of that is 272, which is 68 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 68 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 68 contain nothing.

What is 68 × 7 and 68 × 8?

68 × 7 = 476 and 68 × 8 = 544. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.

Is 1,020 in the 68 times table?

Yes: 1,020 ÷ 68 = 15 with no remainder. 1,021 is not, because dividing it by 68 leaves a remainder of 1.

How do I learn the 68 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.
