A:
Multiples of 2850 Methods Methods for Finding Multiples: For a beginner, you can find the multiples of a number by skip-counting to the next number. For Instance, if you want to find the multiples of 2850, you could start at 2850, and keep adding 2850 over and over: 2850, 5700, 8550, 11400, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 2850. Typically, this works best only for smaller numbers, as adding larger numbers together over and over can be difficult. Another way to do this is to use multiplication. To find the first few multiples of 2850, you could just multiply 2850 by each number in sequence, first multiplying by 1, then 2, then 3, and so on, which we will outline below. What are the Multiples of 2850? So, what are the multiples of 2850? Let’s write it out using the multiplication method: 2850 × 1 = 2850 2850 × 1 = 2850 2850 × 1 = 2850 2850 × 2 = 5700 2850 × 2 = 5700 2850 × 2 = 5700 2850 × 3 = 8550 2850 × 3 = 8550 2850 × 3 = 8550 2850 × 4 = 11400 2850 × 4 = 11400 2850 × 4 = 11400 2850 × 5 = 14250 2850 × 5 = 14250 2850 × 5 = 14250 2850 × 6 = 17100 2850 × 6 = 17100 2850 × 6 = 17100 2850 × 7 = 19950 2850 × 7 = 19950 2850 × 7 = 19950 2850 × 8 = 22800 2850 × 8 = 22800 2850 × 8 = 22800 2850 × 9 = 25650 2850 × 9 = 25650 2850 × 9 = 25650 2850 × 10 = 28500 2850 × 10 = 28500 2850 × 10 = 28500 So, the first 10 multiples of 2850 are: 2850, 5700, 8550, 11400, 14250, 17100, 19950, 22800, 25650 and 28500. There are an endless number of multiples of 2850. You could choose any number to multiply by 2850 to find a new multiple! Interesting Facts about Multiples • Every number is considered the smallest multiple of itself. • A multiple of a number is very often also the multiple of another number. This is because if you multiply two numbers together, the result is a multiple of both numbers. • All multiples of even numbers are even. • The multiples of odd numbers, in sequence, alternate between odd and even numbers. • You can also find the negative multiples of a number by multiplying by negative numbers.
