Multiples of 603
Methods
Methods for Finding Multiples:
The most common way to find multiples is to use multiplication. Multiplication of whole numbers always results in multiples of the numbers being multiplied. To find the first few multiples of 603, you could just multiply 603 by 1, then 2, then 3, and so on, until you have as many multiples as you would like. This is shown in the next section.
For younger students that don’t know how to multiply yet, the same result can be found just by counting, or skip-counting. To find multiples of any number, just add the number to itself multiple times. For instance, if you want to find the multiples of 603, start at 603 and keep adding 603 over and over: 603, 1206, 1809, 2412, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 603.
There are an endless number of multiples! You can keep using either of these methods to find as many multiples as you would like.
What are the Multiples of 603?
Let’s find the first 10 multiples of 603 by multiplying:
603
∗
1
=
603
603 * 1 = 603
603 ∗ 1 = 603
603
∗
2
=
1206
603 * 2 = 1206
603 ∗ 2 = 1206
603
∗
3
=
1809
603 * 3 = 1809
603 ∗ 3 = 1809
603
∗
4
=
2412
603 * 4 = 2412
603 ∗ 4 = 2412
603
∗
5
=
3015
603 * 5 = 3015
603 ∗ 5 = 3015
603
∗
6
=
3618
603 * 6 = 3618
603 ∗ 6 = 3618
603
∗
7
=
4221
603 * 7 = 4221
603 ∗ 7 = 4221
603
∗
8
=
4824
603 * 8 = 4824
603 ∗ 8 = 4824
603
∗
9
=
5427
603 * 9 = 5427
603 ∗ 9 = 5427
603
∗
10
=
6030
603 * 10 = 6030
603 ∗ 10 = 6030
So, the first 10 multiples of 603 are: 603, 1206, 1809, 2412, 2412, 3618, 4221, 4824, 5427 and 6030.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• The primary multiple of any number is itself.
• The result of any multiplication of whole numbers is a multiple of all the numbers being multiplied together. As such, every multiple is also a multiple of another number.
• Every multiple of even numbers will also be even.
• The successive multiples of odd numbers alternate between odd and even numbers.
• You can also find negative multiples of a number by multiplying by negative numbers.
