Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 2, 4, 6, 8, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 842 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 842 × k = 840 × k + 2 × k.
  • Each answer is 842 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 842.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 842 times table is double the answer in the 421 times table: 421 × 6 = 2,526, so 842 × 6 = 5,052. To multiply 842 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 842 away: 8,420 − 842 = 7,578. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 842: 8,420 + 842 = 9,262. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 842 → 1,684 → 3,368.

Every multiple of 842 is at least 842, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 842 times table exactly when it divides by 842 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 842 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: 842 × 10 = 8,420, and 842 × 100 = 84,200. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 8,420 is 4,210.

Using the 842 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 842 × 7 = 5,894, you know 5,894 ÷ 842 = 7 and 5,894 ÷ 7 = 842. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
