Multiples of 3487 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 3487, you could start at 3487, and keep adding 3487 over and over: 3487, 6974, 10461, 13948, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 3487. 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 3487, you could just multiply 3487 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 3487? So, what are the multiples of 3487? Let’s write it out using the multiplication method: 3487 × 1 = 3487 3487 × 1 = 3487 3487 × 1 = 3487 3487 × 2 = 6974 3487 × 2 = 6974 3487 × 2 = 6974 3487 × 3 = 10461 3487 × 3 = 10461 3487 × 3 = 10461 3487 × 4 = 13948 3487 × 4 = 13948 3487 × 4 = 13948 3487 × 5 = 17435 3487 × 5 = 17435 3487 × 5 = 17435 3487 × 6 = 20922 3487 × 6 = 20922 3487 × 6 = 20922 3487 × 7 = 24409 3487 × 7 = 24409 3487 × 7 = 24409 3487 × 8 = 27896 3487 × 8 = 27896 3487 × 8 = 27896 3487 × 9 = 31383 3487 × 9 = 31383 3487 × 9 = 31383 3487 × 10 = 34870 3487 × 10 = 34870 3487 × 10 = 34870 So, the first 10 multiples of 3487 are: 3487, 6974, 10461, 13948, 17435, 20922, 24409, 27896, 31383 and 34870. There are an endless number of multiples of 3487. You could choose any number to multiply by 3487 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.
