Patterns that help
The last digits go 6, 2, 8, 4, 0 and then repeat.
16 is even, so every multiple of 16 is even too.
A quick check: Halve it four times. If you still have a whole number, it is a multiple of 16. 144 halves to 72, then 36, then 18, then 9, so 144 is a multiple of 16.
Building the list from facts you know: Double the 8 times table: 16 × 7 is double 56, which is 112.
