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 888 is even.
- Split it into tens and ones: 888 × k = 880 × k + 8 × k.
- Each answer is 888 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 888.
Building it from tables you already know
Every answer in the 888 times table is double the answer in the 444 times table: 444 × 6 = 2,664, so 888 × 6 = 5,328. To multiply 888 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 888 away: 8,880 − 888 = 7,992. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 888: 8,880 + 888 = 9,768. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 888 → 1,776 → 3,552.
Every multiple of 888 is at least 888, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 888 times table exactly when it divides by 888 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 888 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: 888 × 10 = 8,880, and 888 × 100 = 88,800. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 8,880 is 4,440.
Using the 888 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 888 × 7 = 6,216, you know 6,216 ÷ 888 = 7 and 6,216 ÷ 7 = 888. 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 888 pencils. How many pencils are in 3 boxes?
Answer
3 × 888 = 2,664 pencils. - Tickets cost $888 each. How much do 9 tickets cost?
Answer
9 × $888 = $7,992. - 7,104 chairs are set out in rows of 888. How many rows are there?
Answer
7,104 ÷ 888 = 8 rows. - A plant grows 888 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 9 weeks?
Answer
9 × 888 = 7,992 millimetres.
Questions
What is 888 × 12?
10,656.
What is half of 888 × 8?
888 × 8 = 7,104, and half of that is 3,552, which is 888 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 888 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 888 contain nothing.
What is 888 × 7 and 888 × 8?
888 × 7 = 6,216 and 888 × 8 = 7,104. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 13,320 in the 888 times table?
Yes: 13,320 ÷ 888 = 15 with no remainder. 13,321 is not, because dividing it by 888 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 888 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.
