Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 3, 6, 9, 2, 5, 8, 1, 4, 7, 0.
- Split it into tens and ones: 953 × k = 950 × k + 3 × k.
- Each answer is 953 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 953.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 953 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 953 away: 9,530 − 953 = 8,577. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 953: 9,530 + 953 = 10,483. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 953 → 1,906 → 3,812.
Every multiple of 953 is at least 953, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 953 times table exactly when it divides by 953 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 953 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 953 × 1 = 953 is odd, 953 × 2 = 1,906 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 953 × 10 = 9,530, and 953 × 100 = 95,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 9,530 is 4,765.
Using the 953 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 953 × 7 = 6,671, you know 6,671 ÷ 953 = 7 and 6,671 ÷ 7 = 953. 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
7 × 953 = 6,671 pencils. - Tickets cost $953 each. How much do 9 tickets cost?
Answer
9 × $953 = $8,577. - 4,765 chairs are set out in rows of 953. How many rows are there?
Answer
4,765 ÷ 953 = 5 rows. - A plant grows 953 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 10 weeks?
Answer
10 × 953 = 9,530 millimetres.
Questions
What is 953 × 12?
11,436.
What is half of 953 × 8?
953 × 8 = 7,624, and half of that is 3,812, which is 953 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 953 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 953 contain nothing.
What is 953 × 7 and 953 × 8?
953 × 7 = 6,671 and 953 × 8 = 7,624. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 14,295 in the 953 times table?
Yes: 14,295 ÷ 953 = 15 with no remainder. 14,296 is not, because dividing it by 953 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 953 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.
