A:
Multiples of 2686 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 2686, you could start at 2686, and keep adding 2686 over and over: 2686, 5372, 8058, 10744, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 2686. 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 2686, you could just multiply 2686 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 2686? So, what are the multiples of 2686? Let’s write it out using the multiplication method: 2686 × 1 = 2686 2686 × 1 = 2686 2686 × 1 = 2686 2686 × 2 = 5372 2686 × 2 = 5372 2686 × 2 = 5372 2686 × 3 = 8058 2686 × 3 = 8058 2686 × 3 = 8058 2686 × 4 = 10744 2686 × 4 = 10744 2686 × 4 = 10744 2686 × 5 = 13430 2686 × 5 = 13430 2686 × 5 = 13430 2686 × 6 = 16116 2686 × 6 = 16116 2686 × 6 = 16116 2686 × 7 = 18802 2686 × 7 = 18802 2686 × 7 = 18802 2686 × 8 = 21488 2686 × 8 = 21488 2686 × 8 = 21488 2686 × 9 = 24174 2686 × 9 = 24174 2686 × 9 = 24174 2686 × 10 = 26860 2686 × 10 = 26860 2686 × 10 = 26860 So, the first 10 multiples of 2686 are: 2686, 5372, 8058, 10744, 13430, 16116, 18802, 21488, 24174 and 26860. There are an endless number of multiples of 2686. You could choose any number to multiply by 2686 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.
