Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 897 × k = 890 × k + 7 × k.
  • Each answer is 897 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 897.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 897 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 897 away: 8,970 − 897 = 8,073. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 897: 8,970 + 897 = 9,867. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 897 → 1,794 → 3,588.

Every multiple of 897 is at least 897, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 897 times table exactly when it divides by 897 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 897 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 897 × 1 = 897 is odd, 897 × 2 = 1,794 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 897 × 10 = 8,970, and 897 × 100 = 89,700. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 8,970 is 4,485.

Using the 897 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 897 × 7 = 6,279, you know 6,279 ÷ 897 = 7 and 6,279 ÷ 7 = 897. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
