Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 959 × k = 950 × k + 9 × k.
  • Each answer is 959 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 959.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 959 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 959 away: 9,590 − 959 = 8,631. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 959: 9,590 + 959 = 10,549. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 959 → 1,918 → 3,836.

Every multiple of 959 is at least 959, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 959 times table exactly when it divides by 959 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 959 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 959 × 1 = 959 is odd, 959 × 2 = 1,918 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 959 × 10 = 9,590, and 959 × 100 = 95,900. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 9,590 is 4,795.

Using the 959 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 959 × 7 = 6,713, you know 6,713 ÷ 959 = 7 and 6,713 ÷ 7 = 959. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
