Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 8, 6, 4, 2, 0.
- Every answer is even, because 878 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 878 × k = 870 × k + 8 × k.
- Each answer is 878 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 878.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 878 times table is double the answer in the 439 times table: 439 × 6 = 2,634, so 878 × 6 = 5,268. To multiply 878 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 878 away: 8,780 − 878 = 7,902. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 878: 8,780 + 878 = 9,658. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 878 → 1,756 → 3,512.
Every multiple of 878 is at least 878, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 878 times table exactly when it divides by 878 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 878 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: 878 × 10 = 8,780, and 878 × 100 = 87,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 8,780 is 4,390.
Using the 878 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 878 × 7 = 6,146, you know 6,146 ÷ 878 = 7 and 6,146 ÷ 7 = 878. 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:

Answer
4 × 878 = 3,512 pencils. - Tickets cost $878 each. How much do 5 tickets cost?
Answer
5 × $878 = $4,390. - 3,512 chairs are set out in rows of 878. How many rows are there?
Answer
3,512 ÷ 878 = 4 rows. - A plant grows 878 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 7 weeks?

Questions
What is 878 × 12?
10,536.
What is half of 878 × 8?
878 × 8 = 7,024, and half of that is 3,512, which is 878 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 878 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 878 contain nothing.
What is 878 × 7 and 878 × 8?
878 × 7 = 6,146 and 878 × 8 = 7,024. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 13,170 in the 878 times table?
Yes: 13,170 ÷ 878 = 15 with no remainder. 13,171 is not, because dividing it by 878 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 878 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.
