Multiples of 230
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 230, you could start at 230, and keep adding 230 over and over: 230, 460, 690, 920, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 230. 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 230, you could just multiply 230 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 230?
So, what are the multiples of 230? Let’s write it out using the multiplication method:
230
×
1
=
230
230 × 1 = 230
230 × 1 = 230
230
×
2
=
460
230 × 2 = 460
230 × 2 = 460
230
×
3
=
690
230 × 3 = 690
230 × 3 = 690
230
×
4
=
920
230 × 4 = 920
230 × 4 = 920
230
×
5
=
1150
230 × 5 = 1150
230 × 5 = 1150
230
×
6
=
1380
230 × 6 = 1380
230 × 6 = 1380
230
×
7
=
1610
230 × 7 = 1610
230 × 7 = 1610
230
×
8
=
1840
230 × 8 = 1840
230 × 8 = 1840
230
×
9
=
2070
230 × 9 = 2070
230 × 9 = 2070
230
×
10
=
2300
230 × 10 = 2300
230 × 10 = 2300
So, the first 10 multiples of 230 are: 230, 460, 690, 920, 1150, 1380, 1610, 1840, 2070 and 2300.
There are an endless number of multiples of 230. You could choose any number to multiply by 230 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.
