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: 71 × k = 70 × k + 1 × k.
- Each answer is 71 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 71.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 71 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 71 away: 710 − 71 = 639. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 71: 710 + 71 = 781. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 71 → 142 → 284.
There are 1 multiples of 71 below 100, and 14 below 1,000. A number is in the 71 times table exactly when it divides by 71 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 71 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 71 × 1 = 71 is odd, 71 × 2 = 142 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 71 × 10 = 710, and 71 × 100 = 7,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 710 is 355.
Using the 71 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 71 × 7 = 497, you know 497 ÷ 71 = 7 and 497 ÷ 7 = 71. 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 71 pencils. How many pencils are in 7 boxes?
Answer
7 × 71 = 497 pencils. - Tickets cost $71 each. How much do 8 tickets cost?
Answer
8 × $71 = $568. - 639 chairs are set out in rows of 71. How many rows are there?
Answer
639 ÷ 71 = 9 rows. - A plant grows 71 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 9 weeks?
Answer
9 × 71 = 639 millimetres.
Questions
What is 71 × 12?
852.
What is half of 71 × 8?
71 × 8 = 568, and half of that is 284, which is 71 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 71 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 71 contain nothing.
What is 71 × 7 and 71 × 8?
71 × 7 = 497 and 71 × 8 = 568. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 1,065 in the 71 times table?
Yes: 1,065 ÷ 71 = 15 with no remainder. 1,066 is not, because dividing it by 71 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 71 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.
