Patterns that help you remember it
- The last digits repeat in a cycle of 10: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 0.
- Split it into tens and ones: 961 × k = 960 × k + 1 × k.
- Each answer is 961 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 961.
Building it from tables you already know
To multiply 961 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 961 away: 9,610 − 961 = 8,649. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 961: 9,610 + 961 = 10,571. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 961 → 1,922 → 3,844.
Every multiple of 961 is at least 961, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 961 times table exactly when it divides by 961 with no remainder.
Odd, even and the last digit
Because 961 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 961 × 1 = 961 is odd, 961 × 2 = 1,922 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 961 × 10 = 9,610, and 961 × 100 = 96,100. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 9,610 is 4,805.
Using the 961 times table to divide
Every fact also works backwards: because 961 × 7 = 6,727, you know 6,727 ÷ 961 = 7 and 6,727 ÷ 7 = 961. 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 961 pencils. How many pencils are in 7 boxes?
Answer
7 × 961 = 6,727 pencils. - Tickets cost $961 each. How much do 7 tickets cost?
Answer
7 × $961 = $6,727. - 5,766 chairs are set out in rows of 961. How many rows are there?
Answer
5,766 ÷ 961 = 6 rows. - A plant grows 961 millimetres a week. How much does it grow in 7 weeks?
Answer
7 × 961 = 6,727 millimetres.
Questions
What is 961 × 12?
11,532.
What is half of 961 × 8?
961 × 8 = 7,688, and half of that is 3,844, which is 961 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.
What is 961 times 0?
0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 961 contain nothing.
What is 961 × 7 and 961 × 8?
961 × 7 = 6,727 and 961 × 8 = 7,688. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
Is 14,415 in the 961 times table?
Yes: 14,415 ÷ 961 = 15 with no remainder. 14,416 is not, because dividing it by 961 leaves a remainder of 1.
How do I learn the 961 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.
