              Riya and  Siya love dancing.  They join a dance class  in  the  month  of
              June.  Riya  attends  the class  every fourth day of the  month  starting

              from the 4th June. Siya attends the class every third day of the month
              starting from the 3rd June.

              Here, the calendar for the month of June is given. We circle
              the dates after 1st of June with green sketch on which Riya                      JUNe          ****

              attends the class and with red sketch on which Siya attends                    SUN MON tUe Wed thU Fri SAt

              Let us see the multiples of 3 and 4 as explained below in the tables.

                        (3)          numbers            of 3              (4)         numbers            of 4

                        3        ×       1       =        3                4      ×       1       =       4
                        3        ×       2       =        6                4      ×       2       =       8

                        3        ×       3       =        9                4      ×       3       =       12
                        3        ×       4       =       12                4      ×       4       =       16

                        3        ×       5       =       15                4      ×       5       =       20
                        3        ×       6       =       18                4      ×       6       =       24
                        3        ×       7       =       21                4      ×       7       =       28

                        3        ×       8       =       24                4      ×       8       =       32
                        3        ×       9       =       27                4      ×       9       =       36
                        3        ×       10      =       30                4      ×      10       =       40

                     3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27 and 30            4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36 and
                         are the first 10 multiples of 3.               40 are the first 10 multiples of 4.

              Thus, multiples  of  a number  are  the  product of  that number  and  the counting
              numbers, 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on.

              We can also say that a multiple is the product of two or more factors.

              For example,         3 × 8 = 24                24 is the product of 3 and 8. So, 24 is a multiple

                                                           of both 3 and 8.

              Thus,  the  product of  two  or more numbers is called  a  multiple of  each of these
              numbers.
