Accepted Solution

A:
Multiples of 236 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 236, you could start at 236, and keep adding 236 over and over: 236, 472, 708, 944, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 236. 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 236, you could just multiply 236 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 236? So, what are the multiples of 236? Let’s write it out using the multiplication method: 236 × 1 = 236 236 × 1 = 236 236 × 1 = 236 236 × 2 = 472 236 × 2 = 472 236 × 2 = 472 236 × 3 = 708 236 × 3 = 708 236 × 3 = 708 236 × 4 = 944 236 × 4 = 944 236 × 4 = 944 236 × 5 = 1180 236 × 5 = 1180 236 × 5 = 1180 236 × 6 = 1416 236 × 6 = 1416 236 × 6 = 1416 236 × 7 = 1652 236 × 7 = 1652 236 × 7 = 1652 236 × 8 = 1888 236 × 8 = 1888 236 × 8 = 1888 236 × 9 = 2124 236 × 9 = 2124 236 × 9 = 2124 236 × 10 = 2360 236 × 10 = 2360 236 × 10 = 2360 So, the first 10 multiples of 236 are: 236, 472, 708, 944, 1180, 1416, 1652, 1888, 2124 and 2360. There are an endless number of multiples of 236. You could choose any number to multiply by 236 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.
