Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 2: 5, 0.
- The digits of every answer add up to a multiple of 9.
- Every answer ends in 0 or 5.
- Split it into tens and ones: 855 × k = 850 × k + 5 × k.
- Each answer is 855 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 855.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 855 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 855 away: 8,550 − 855 = 7,695. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 855: 8,550 + 855 = 9,405. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 855 → 1,710 → 3,420.
Every multiple of 855 is at least 855, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 855 times table exactly when it divides by 855 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 855 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 855 × 1 = 855 is odd, 855 × 2 = 1,710 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 855 × 10 = 8,550, and 855 × 100 = 85,500. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 8,550 is 4,275.
Using the 855 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 855 × 7 = 5,985, you know 5,985 ÷ 855 = 7 and 5,985 ÷ 7 = 855. 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 855 pencils. How many pencils are in 9 boxes?
Answer
9 × 855 = 7,695 pencils. - Tickets cost $855 each. How much do 10 tickets cost?
Answer
10 × $855 = $8,550. - 6,840 chairs are set out in rows of 855. How many rows are there?
Answer
6,840 ÷ 855 = 8 rows. - A plant grows 855 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 6 weeks?
Answer
6 × 855 = 5,130 millimetres.
Questions
What is 855 × 12?
10,260.
What is half of 855 × 8?
855 × 8 = 6,840, and half of that is 3,420, which is 855 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 855 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 855 contain nothing.
What is 855 × 7 and 855 × 8?
855 × 7 = 5,985 and 855 × 8 = 6,840. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 12,825 in the 855 times table?
Yes: 12,825 ÷ 855 = 15 with no remainder. 12,826 is not, because dividing it by 855 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 855 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.
