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: 983 × k = 980 × k + 3 × k.
  • Each answer is 983 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 983.

Building it from tables you already know

To multiply 983 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 983 away: 9,830 − 983 = 8,847. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 983: 9,830 + 983 = 10,813. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 983 → 1,966 → 3,932.

Every multiple of 983 is at least 983, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 983 times table exactly when it divides by 983 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 983 is odd, the answers alternate between odd and even: 983 × 1 = 983 is odd, 983 × 2 = 1,966 is even, and so on. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 983 × 10 = 9,830, and 983 × 100 = 98,300. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 9,830 is 4,915.

Using the 983 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 983 × 7 = 6,881, you know 6,881 ÷ 983 = 7 and 6,881 ÷ 7 = 983. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.
