Multiples of 2403
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 2403, you could just multiply 2403 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 2403, start at 2403 and keep adding 2403 over and over: 2403, 4806, 7209, 9612, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 2403.
There are an endless number of multiples! You can keep using either of these methods to find as many multiples as you would like.

=
9612
2403 * 4 = 9612
2403 ∗ 4 = 9612
2403
∗
5
=
12015
2403 * 5 = 12015
2403 ∗ 5 = 12015
2403
∗
6
=
14418
2403 * 6 = 14418
2403 ∗ 6 = 14418
2403
∗
7
=

2403 * 7 = 16821
2403 ∗ 7 = 16821
2403
∗
8
=
19224
2403 * 8 = 19224
2403 ∗ 8 = 19224
2403
∗
9
=
21627
2403 * 9 = 21627
2403 ∗ 9 = 21627
2403
∗
10
=
24030
2403 * 10 = 24030
2403 ∗ 10 = 24030
So, the first 10 multiples of 2403 are: 2403, 4806, 7209, 9612, 9612, 14418, 16821, 19224, 21627 and 24030.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• The primary multiple of any number is itself.
