Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 1: 0.
- Every answer is even, because 850 is even.
- Every answer ends in 0 or 5.
- Split it into tens and ones: 850 × k = 850 × k + 0 × k.
- Each answer is 850 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 850.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 850 times table is double the answer in the 425 times table: 425 × 6 = 2,550, so 850 × 6 = 5,100. To multiply 850 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 850 away: 8,500 − 850 = 7,650. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 850: 8,500 + 850 = 9,350. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 850 → 1,700 → 3,400.
Every multiple of 850 is at least 850, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 850 times table exactly when it divides by 850 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 850 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: 850 × 10 = 8,500, and 850 × 100 = 85,000. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 8,500 is 4,250.
Using the 850 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 850 × 7 = 5,950, you know 5,950 ÷ 850 = 7 and 5,950 ÷ 7 = 850. 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 850 pencils. How many pencils are in 9 boxes?
Answer
9 × 850 = 7,650 pencils. - Tickets cost $850 each. How much do 6 tickets cost?
Answer
6 × $850 = $5,100. - 2,550 chairs are set out in rows of 850. How many rows are there?
Answer
2,550 ÷ 850 = 3 rows. - A plant grows 850 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 6 weeks?
Answer
6 × 850 = 5,100 millimetres.
Questions
What is 850 × 12?
10,200.
What is half of 850 × 8?
850 × 8 = 6,800, and half of that is 3,400, which is 850 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 850 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 850 contain nothing.
What is 850 × 7 and 850 × 8?
850 × 7 = 5,950 and 850 × 8 = 6,800. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 12,750 in the 850 times table?
Yes: 12,750 ÷ 850 = 15 with no remainder. 12,751 is not, because dividing it by 850 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 850 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.
