The 17 times table from 1 to 20
17 sits beyond the standard 12 × 12 chart, but its multiples come up constantly — a traditional haiku has 17 syllables (5 + 7 + 5). Each row also gives the division fact it answers.
| Fact | Answer | Division fact |
|---|---|---|
| 17 × 1 | 17 | 17 ÷ 17 = 1 |
| 17 × 2 | 34 | 34 ÷ 17 = 2 |
| 17 × 3 | 51 | 51 ÷ 17 = 3 |
| 17 × 4 | 68 | 68 ÷ 17 = 4 |
| 17 × 5 | 85 | 85 ÷ 17 = 5 |
| 17 × 6 | 102 | 102 ÷ 17 = 6 |
| 17 × 7 | 119 | 119 ÷ 17 = 7 |
| 17 × 8 | 136 | 136 ÷ 17 = 8 |
| 17 × 9 | 153 | 153 ÷ 17 = 9 |
| 17 × 10 | 170 | 170 ÷ 17 = 10 |
| 17 × 11 | 187 | 187 ÷ 17 = 11 |
| 17 × 12 | 204 | 204 ÷ 17 = 12 |
| 17 × 13 | 221 | 221 ÷ 17 = 13 |
| 17 × 14 | 238 | 238 ÷ 17 = 14 |
| 17 × 15 | 255 | 255 ÷ 17 = 15 |
| 17 × 16 | 272 | 272 ÷ 17 = 16 |
| 17 × 17 | 289 | 289 ÷ 17 = 17 |
| 17 × 18 | 306 | 306 ÷ 17 = 18 |
| 17 × 19 | 323 | 323 ÷ 17 = 19 |
| 17 × 20 | 340 | 340 ÷ 17 = 20 |
Patterns in the 17 times table
- Last digits. The ones digits of 17 × 1 to 17 × 10 are 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0 — all ten digits appear once before the pattern repeats, because 17 shares no factor with 10.
- Odd and even. 17 is odd, so the answers alternate odd, even, odd, even — odd times odd is odd, odd times even is even.
- Digit sums. Reduce each answer to a single digit (17 × 1 to 17 × 9 give 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 9) and all nine values appear before repeating.
- A prime table. 17 is prime, so its table cannot be built by chaining smaller tables — split it instead: 17 × k = 10 × k + 7 × k.
A shortcut for multiplying by 17
Twenty times minus three times: 17 × 6 = 120 − 18 = 102.
Worked example: 17 × 7
Split 17 into 10 + 7: 10 × 7 = 70 and 7 × 7 = 49, so 17 × 7 = 119.
