Multiples of 2951
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 2951, you could just multiply 2951 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 2951, start at 2951 and keep adding 2951 over and over: 2951, 5902, 8853, 11804, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 2951.
There are an endless number of multiples! You can keep using either of these methods to find as many multiples as you would like.

=
11804
2951 * 4 = 11804
2951 ∗ 4 = 11804
2951
∗
5
=
14755
2951 * 5 = 14755
2951 ∗ 5 = 14755
2951
∗
6
=
17706
2951 * 6 = 17706
2951 ∗ 6 = 17706
2951
∗
7
=
20657
2951 * 7 = 20657
2951 ∗ 7 = 20657
2951
∗
8
=
23608
2951 * 8 = 23608
2951 ∗ 8 = 23608
2951
∗
9
=
26559
2951 * 9 = 26559
2951 ∗ 9 = 26559
2951
∗
10
=
29510
2951 * 10 = 29510
2951 ∗ 10 = 29510
So, the first 10 multiples of 2951 are: 2951, 5902, 8853, 11804, 11804, 17706, 20657, 23608, 26559 and 29510.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• The primary multiple of any number is itself.
