Multiplication Table Of 71
The table of 71 is the list of products you get when you multiply 71 by each whole number in turn. Because 71 ends in 1, the last digit of each product simply copies the multiplier: $71 \times 3$ ends in 3, $71 \times 4$ ends in 4, and so on.

What Is The Table Of 71 In Words?
Reading the table aloud builds the rhythm before the numbers stick.
One times 71 is 71
Two times 71 is 142
Three times 71 is 213
Four times 71 is 284
Five times 71 is 355
Six times 71 is 426
Seven times 71 is 497
Eight times 71 is 568
Nine times 71 is 639
Ten times 71 is 710
What Is The 71 Times Table?
The 71 times table is repeated addition of 71. Each row adds one more group of seventy-one, so the table answers "how much is seventy-one, added to itself, again and again?"
Built from the ground up, the ladder looks like this:
$71$
$71 + 71 = 142$
$71 + 71 + 71 = 213$
$71 + 71 + 71 + 71 = 284$
Multiplication is the shortcut for this stacking, which is why $71 \times 4$ and "four seventy-ones added together" both give 284.
What Are The Multiples Of 71?
The multiples of 71 are the numbers you reach by skip-counting in seventy-ones. The first twenty are:
71, 142, 213, 284, 355, 426, 497, 568, 639, 710, 781, 852, 923, 994, 1065, 1136, 1207, 1278, 1349, 1420.
Every entry in the table of 71 is a multiple of 71, and because 71 is a prime number, its only factors are 1 and 71. There is no smaller whole-number table hidden inside it, so the multiples never share a common factor pattern the way the multiples of an even number do.
How To Learn The 71 Times Table (Patterns, Not Memorizing)
Bhanzu teaches the few patterns that generate a table rather than drilling its rows into recall. A prime like 71 cannot be rebuilt by doubling a smaller table, so the work goes into place value instead, and that is a good thing: the seventy-plus-one method you use here is the same distributive reasoning that carries straight into algebra.
Every pattern below comes from how 71 is written: $71 = 70 + 1$, and $70 = 7 \times 10$.
Pattern 1: Seven tens plus one more. Because $71 = 70 + 1$, you can compute $71 \times n$ as $70n + n$. For $71 \times 6$: $70 \times 6 = 420$, plus one more 6, gives 426.
Pattern 2: The units digit copies the multiplier. Since 71 ends in 1, the last digit of $71 \times n$ is always the last digit of $n$: $71 \times 3 = 213$ ends in 3, $71 \times 8 = 568$ ends in 8. It is a quick check that a product could belong to the table.
Pattern 3: Split the multiplier by place value. A large row decomposes the way the number is written. For $71 \times 13$, read 13 as $10 + 3$, so $71 \times 13 = (71 \times 10) + (71 \times 3) = 710 + 213 = 923$, the distributive idea you meet again as $71(10 + 3)$ in algebra.
Pattern 4: 71 is prime, so lean on 70. With no factor shortcut available, the seventies are your anchor table. Learn to jump from a known multiple of 70 to the matching multiple of 71 by adding the count, and the whole table falls out of one you already know.
How Do You Read And Use The Table Of 71?
Read each row left to right: $71 \times 6 = 426$ is "seventy-one multiplied six times gives four hundred twenty-six." The first number is the group size, the second is the count of groups, and the product is the total.
To learn it, skip-count in seventy-ones while checking each result against the matching seventy plus the extra count, then quiz yourself in a shuffled order so you are reasoning rather than reciting. If a row slips, rebuild it as $70n + n$ instead of guessing.
Where Does The Table Of 71 Appear?
Seventy-one turns up wherever a prime-sized count resists tidy grouping. Because 71 is prime, a set of 71 items can only be arranged as a single row of 71, never as an even rectangle, which is exactly the property that makes primes like 71 useful in code that spreads data evenly across storage. On a smaller scale, any run that repeats in seventy-ones, such as 71 pages per section or 71 seats per row, is counted by reading off this table.
Solved Examples Of The Table Of 71
Example 1
What is $71 \times 7$?
Use seven tens plus one: $70 \times 7 = 490$ and one more 7 is 7.
$490 + 7 = 497$
Final answer: $71 \times 7 = 497$.
Example 2 (Wrong path first)
A hall has 71 seats in each row. How many seats in 8 rows?
Wrong attempt. The rusher reads $71 \times 8$ as $70 \times 8 = 560$ and stops there.
Why it breaks. Rounding 71 down to 70 quietly drops one seat from every row, and $1 \times 8 = 8$ seats is a whole extra bench missing.
Correct. Keep the extra one: $71 \times 8 = (70 \times 8) + (1 \times 8) = 560 + 8$.
$560 + 8 = 568$
Final answer: 568 seats.
Example 3
Find $71 \times 12$.
Split it: $71 \times 10 = 710$ and $71 \times 2 = 142$.
$710 + 142 = 852$
Final answer: $71 \times 12 = 852$.
Example 4
$71 \times {?} = 1065$.
Divide to find the missing factor: $1065 \div 71 = 15$.
Final answer: $71 \times 15 = 1065$.
Example 5
A subscription costs 71 rupees a month. What is the cost over 20 months?
$71 \times 20 = (71 \times 2) \times 10 = 142 \times 10 = 1420$.
Final answer: 1420 rupees.
What Are Common Mistakes With The Table Of 71?
Mistake 1: Rounding 71 down to 70 and forgetting the extra count
Where it slips in: Using the seventy-plus-one route but stopping after the $70n$ step.
Don't do this: Writing $71 \times 5 = 350$ (that is $70 \times 5$, with the extra $1 \times 5 = 5$ never added).
The correct way: Take $70 \times 5 = 350$, then add $1 \times 5 = 5$, giving $71 \times 5 = 355$.
Mistake 2: Hunting for a factor shortcut that does not exist
Where it slips in: Trying to "halve and double" the way you would for an even table.
Don't do this: Computing $71 \times 6$ as some multiple of a smaller table, since 71 has no whole factors but 1 and itself.
The correct way: Use place value instead: $71 \times 6 = 70 \times 6 + 6 = 426$.

Conclusion
The table of 71 has no factor shortcut, but it has something simpler: every row is just seven tens of the multiplier plus one more count. Learn to read 71 as $70 + 1$ and the whole table from 71 to 1420 becomes something you can rebuild on demand.
