Finding the Multiples of a Number
The multiples of a number can be found by multiplying it by the counting numbers
1, 2, 3, 4 and so on.
Example 1: Find the first five multiples of 7.
Solution: 7 × 1 = 7
7 × 2 = 14
7 × 3 = 21
7 × 4 = 28
7 × 5 = 35
Thus, the first five multiples of 7 are 7, 14, 21, 28, 35. Math Insight
Example 2: Find the 10th multiple of 11. To find the even
Solution: To find the 10th multiple of 11, multiply 11 by 10. multiples of a number
multiply the numbers
11 × 10 = 110 by even counting
Thus, the 10th multiple of 11 = 110. numbers. To find
the odd multiples of
Example 3: Find the first five even multiples of 9. a number multiply
Solution: The first five even numbers are 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10. the numbers by odd
So, the first five even multiples of 9 are: counting numbers.
9 × 2 = 18 9 × 4 = 36 9 × 6 = 54 9 × 8 = 72 9 × 10 = 90
Thus, the first five even multiples of 9 are 18, 36, 54, 72 and 90.
Example 4: Find the first five odd multiples of 13.
Solution: The first five odd numbers are 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9.
So, the first five odd multiples of 13 are:
13 × 1 = 13 13 × 3 = 39 13 × 5 = 65 13 × 7 = 91 13 × 9 = 117
Thus, the first five odd multiples of 13 are 13, 39, 65, 91 and 117.
to Find out Whether one Number is a Multiple of another
For a number to be a multiple of another, it must be exactly divisible by
the smaller number without leaving any remainder. 5 75 15
5
Example 5: Is 75 a multiple of 5? 25
Solution: If 75 is a multiple of 5, then it should be completely 25
divisible by 5, that is the remainder should be 0. 0
Remainder = 0 when we divide 75 by 5.
So, 75 is a multiple of 5.
Example 6: Is 38 a multiple of 7?
Solution: If 38 is a multiple of 7, then it should be completely divisible
by 7. 7 38 5
The remainder is not 0 when we divide 38 by 7. 35
3
So, 38 is not a multiple of 7.
