Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0.
- Split it into tens and ones: 73 × k = 70 × k + 3 × k.
- Each answer is 73 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 73.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 73 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 73 away: 730 − 73 = 657. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 73: 730 + 73 = 803. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 73 → 146 → 292.
There are 1 multiples of 73 below 100, and 13 below 1,000. A number is in the 73 times table exactly when it divides by 73 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 73 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 73 × 1 = 73 is odd, 73 × 2 = 146 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 73 × 10 = 730, and 73 × 100 = 7,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 730 is 365.
Using the 73 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 73 × 7 = 511, you know 511 ÷ 73 = 7 and 511 ÷ 7 = 73. 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 73 pencils. How many pencils are in 6 boxes?
Answer
6 × 73 = 438 pencils. - Tickets cost $73 each. How much do 6 tickets cost?
Answer
6 × $73 = $438. - 657 chairs are set out in rows of 73. How many rows are there?
Answer
657 ÷ 73 = 9 rows. - A plant grows 73 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 11 weeks?
Answer
11 × 73 = 803 millimetres.
Questions
What is 73 × 12?
876.
What is half of 73 × 8?
73 × 8 = 584, and half of that is 292, which is 73 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 73 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 73 contain nothing.
What is 73 × 7 and 73 × 8?
73 × 7 = 511 and 73 × 8 = 584. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 1,095 in the 73 times table?
Yes: 1,095 ÷ 73 = 15 with no remainder. 1,096 is not, because dividing it by 73 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 73 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.
