Key Terms

Multiple: A result in a times table; for 4 it’s 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, …
Factor: A whole number that divides another exactly; 4 is a factor of 28 because 28 ÷ 4 = 7.
Divisibility rule for 4: If the last two digits form a number divisible by 4 (00, 04, …, 96), the whole number is divisible by 4.

Frequently Asked Questions (Click to see answers)

What is the fastest way to learn the 4 times table?

Use “double, then double again.” For example, 9 × 4 = double of 18 = 36. Also practise skip-counting: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20…

How do I check if a number is divisible by 4?

Look at the last two digits. If they make a multiple of 4, it works: 316 (16 ÷ 4 = 4, yes), 154 (54 ÷ 4 isn’t whole, no), 1,000 (00 means yes).

How can I use the 4 times table to divide?

Use the inverse relationship. If 4 × 7 = 28, then 28 ÷ 4 = 7. Repeated subtraction of 4s also reveals the quotient.
