Patterns that help you remember it

  • The last digits repeat in a cycle of 5: 6, 2, 8, 4, 0.
  • Every answer is even, because 996 is even.
  • Split it into tens and ones: 996 × k = 990 × k + 6 × k.
  • Each answer is 996 more than the one before, so you can count on in steps of 996.

Building it from tables you already know

Every answer in the 996 times table is double the answer in the 498 times table: 498 × 6 = 2,988, so 996 × 6 = 5,976. To multiply 996 by 9, multiply by 10 and take one 996 away: 9,960 − 996 = 8,964. To multiply by 11, multiply by 10 and add one more 996: 9,960 + 996 = 10,956. Multiplying by 4 is doubling twice: 996 → 1,992 → 3,984.

Every multiple of 996 is at least 996, so there are none below 100 and 1 below 1,000. A number is in the 996 times table exactly when it divides by 996 with no remainder.

Odd, even and the last digit

Because 996 is even, every answer in its table is even, which is a quick way to catch a wrong answer. Multiplying by 10 always puts a zero on the end: 996 × 10 = 9,960, and 996 × 100 = 99,600. Multiplying by 5 is half of multiplying by 10: half of 9,960 is 4,980.

Using the 996 times table to divide

Every fact also works backwards: because 996 × 7 = 6,972, you know 6,972 ÷ 996 = 7 and 6,972 ÷ 7 = 996. Practising the table and its division facts together halves the work.

Questions

What is 996 × 12?

11,952.

What is half of 996 × 8?

996 × 8 = 7,968, and half of that is 3,984, which is 996 × 4. Halving one factor halves the answer.

What is 996 times 0?

0. Any number multiplied by zero is zero, because zero groups of 996 contain nothing.

What is 996 × 7 and 996 × 8?

996 × 7 = 6,972 and 996 × 8 = 7,968. These two are the facts most people find hardest, so they are worth practising on their own.
