Tips and tricks for the multiplication table of 261

Multiplication tables are fundamental for developing math skills. Some tips and tricks are listed below.

 

  • The table of 261 has a pattern, by understanding that pattern it becomes easy to learn the table. The pattern involves the digits repeating and increasing by a factor of 261, making it easier to memorize.

 

  • Breaking up multiplication into smaller numbers makes it easy. For example, to calculate 261 x 13, it can be broken down into 261 x 5 + 261 x 8 = 1305 + 2088 = 3393.

 

  • The table of 261 can also be practiced using the skip counting method, i.e., by counting 261’s: 261, 522, 783, 1044, 1305, 1566, 1827, and so on. To make it simple, practice skip counting with numbers 2, 5, and 10.

 

  • Double the multiplier of 261, repeat the same, and the product will be obtained. For example, 261 x 4 = 1044 can be calculated by 4 x 2 = 8 and then 8 x 261 = 1044.

 

  • Table of 2 is a common multiplication table for reconfirming the products of the table of 261 as 2 is a multiple of 261.

 

The tips and tricks above will help you in the 261 times table. The common mistakes and the solved examples show where to look out for and how to solve problems with the table of 261.
