A:
Multiples of 1976 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 1976, you could start at 1976, and keep adding 1976 over and over: 1976, 3952, 5928, 7904, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 1976. 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 1976, you could just multiply 1976 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 1976? So, what are the multiples of 1976? Let’s write it out using the multiplication method: 1976 × 1 = 1976 1976 × 1 = 1976 1976 × 1 = 1976 1976 × 2 = 3952 1976 × 2 = 3952 1976 × 2 = 3952 1976 × 3 = 5928 1976 × 3 = 5928 1976 × 3 = 5928 1976 × 4 = 7904 1976 × 4 = 7904 1976 × 4 = 7904 1976 × 5 = 9880 1976 × 5 = 9880 1976 × 5 = 9880 1976 × 6 = 11856 1976 × 6 = 11856 1976 × 6 = 11856 1976 × 7 = 13832 1976 × 7 = 13832 1976 × 7 = 13832 1976 × 8 = 15808 1976 × 8 = 15808 1976 × 8 = 15808 1976 × 9 = 17784 1976 × 9 = 17784 1976 × 9 = 17784 1976 × 10 = 19760 1976 × 10 = 19760 1976 × 10 = 19760 So, the first 10 multiples of 1976 are: 1976, 3952, 5928, 7904, 9880, 11856, 13832, 15808, 17784 and 19760. There are an endless number of multiples of 1976. You could choose any number to multiply by 1976 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.
