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: 731 × k = 730 × k + 1 × k.
- Each answer is 731 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 731.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 731 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 731 away: 7,310 − 731 = 6,579. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 731: 7,310 + 731 = 8,041. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 731 → 1,462 → 2,924.
Every multiple of 731 is at least 731, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 731 times table exactly when it divides by 731 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 731 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 731 × 1 = 731 is odd, 731 × 2 = 1,462 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 731 × 10 = 7,310, and 731 × 100 = 73,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 7,310 is 3,655.
Using the 731 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 731 × 7 = 5,117, you know 5,117 ÷ 731 = 7 and 5,117 ÷ 7 = 731. 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 731 pencils. How many pencils are in 9 boxes?
Answer
9 × 731 = 6,579 pencils. - Tickets cost $731 each. How much do 12 tickets cost?
Answer
12 × $731 = $8,772. - 2,924 chairs are set out in rows of 731. How many rows are there?
Answer
2,924 ÷ 731 = 4 rows. - A plant grows 731 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 6 weeks?
Answer
6 × 731 = 4,386 millimetres.
Questions
What is 731 × 12?
8,772.
What is half of 731 × 8?
731 × 8 = 5,848, and half of that is 2,924, which is 731 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 731 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 731 contain nothing.
What is 731 × 7 and 731 × 8?
731 × 7 = 5,117 and 731 × 8 = 5,848. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 10,965 in the 731 times table?
Yes: 10,965 ÷ 731 = 15 with no remainder. 10,966 is not, because dividing it by 731 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 731 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.
