Multiples of 3480 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 3480, you could start at 3480, and keep adding 3480 over and over: 3480, 6960, 10440, 13920, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 3480. 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 3480, you could just multiply 3480 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 3480? So, what are the multiples of 3480? Let’s write it out using the multiplication method: 3480 × 1 = 3480 3480 × 1 = 3480 3480 × 1 = 3480 3480 × 2 = 6960 3480 × 2 = 6960 3480 × 2 = 6960 3480 × 3 = 10440 3480 × 3 = 10440 3480 × 3 = 10440 3480 × 4 = 13920 3480 × 4 = 13920 3480 × 4 = 13920 3480 × 5 = 17400 3480 × 5 = 17400 3480 × 5 = 17400 3480 × 6 = 20880 3480 × 6 = 20880 3480 × 6 = 20880 3480 × 7 = 24360 3480 × 7 = 24360 3480 × 7 = 24360 3480 × 8 = 27840 3480 × 8 = 27840 3480 × 8 = 27840 3480 × 9 = 31320 3480 × 9 = 31320 3480 × 9 = 31320 3480 × 10 = 34800 3480 × 10 = 34800 3480 × 10 = 34800 So, the first 10 multiples of 3480 are: 3480, 6960, 10440, 13920, 17400, 20880, 24360, 27840, 31320 and 34800. There are an endless number of multiples of 3480. You could choose any number to multiply by 3480 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.
