Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 1: 0.
- Every answer is even, because 70 is even.
- Every answer ends in 0 or 5.
- Split it into tens and ones: 70 × k = 70 × k + 0 × k.
- Each answer is 70 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 70.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 70 times table is double the answer in the 35 times table: 35 × 6 = 210, so 70 × 6 = 420. To multiply 70 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 70 away: 700 − 70 = 630. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 70: 700 + 70 = 770. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 70 → 140 → 280.
There are 1 multiples of 70 below 100, and 14 below 1,000. A number is in the 70 times table exactly when it divides by 70 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 70 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: 70 × 10 = 700, and 70 × 100 = 7,000. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 700 is 350.
Using the 70 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 70 × 7 = 490, you know 490 ÷ 70 = 7 and 490 ÷ 7 = 70. 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 70 pencils. How many pencils are in 6 boxes?
Answer
6 × 70 = 420 pencils. - Tickets cost $70 each. How much do 7 tickets cost?
Answer
7 × $70 = $490. - 280 chairs are set out in rows of 70. How many rows are there?
Answer
280 ÷ 70 = 4 rows. - A plant grows 70 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 7 weeks?
Answer
7 × 70 = 490 millimetres.
Questions
What is 70 × 12?
840.
What is half of 70 × 8?
70 × 8 = 560, and half of that is 280, which is 70 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 70 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 70 contain nothing.
What is 70 × 7 and 70 × 8?
70 × 7 = 490 and 70 × 8 = 560. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 1,050 in the 70 times table?
Yes: 1,050 ÷ 70 = 15 with no remainder. 1,051 is not, because dividing it by 70 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 70 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.
