Multiples of 17 up to 100
There are 5 multiples of 17 from 1 to 100: 17, 34, 51, 68 and 85.
There are 5 multiples of 17 up to 100, so they are spread thinly across the square with 16 numbers between each one.
Patterns that help
The last digits go 7, 4, 1, 8, 5, 2, 9, 6, 3, 0 and then repeat. Every digit from 0 to 9 appears once before the pattern repeats.
17 is odd, so its multiples go odd, even, odd, even: 17, 34, 51, 68.
A quick check: 17 is a prime number, and there is no quick digit check for it. Count on in 17s, or divide by 17 and see whether anything is left over.
Building the list from facts you know: Split 17 into 10 and 7: 17 × 6 is 60 + 42, which is 102.
17 is a prime number. Because it is a prime bigger than 12, none of its multiples appear anywhere in the 2 to 12 times tables, which is why they can feel unfamiliar.
