Multiples of 1008
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 1008, you could just multiply 1008 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 1008, start at 1008 and keep adding 1008 over and over: 1008, 2016, 3024, 4032, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 1008.
There are an endless number of multiples! You can keep using either of these methods to find as many multiples as you would like.
What are the Multiples of 1008?
Let’s find the first 10 multiples of 1008 by multiplying:
1008
∗
1
=
1008
1008 * 1 = 1008
1008 ∗ 1 = 1008
1008
∗
2
=
2016
1008 * 2 = 2016
1008 ∗ 2 = 2016
1008
∗
3
=
3024
1008 * 3 = 3024
1008 ∗ 3 = 3024
1008
∗
4
=
4032
1008 * 4 = 4032
1008 ∗ 4 = 4032
1008
∗
5
=
5040
1008 * 5 = 5040
1008 ∗ 5 = 5040
1008
∗
6
=
6048
1008 * 6 = 6048
1008 ∗ 6 = 6048
1008
∗
7
=
7056
1008 * 7 = 7056
1008 ∗ 7 = 7056
1008
∗
8
=
8064
1008 * 8 = 8064
1008 ∗ 8 = 8064
1008
∗
9
=
9072
1008 * 9 = 9072
1008 ∗ 9 = 9072
1008
∗
10
=
10080
1008 * 10 = 10080
1008 ∗ 10 = 10080
So, the first 10 multiples of 1008 are: 1008, 2016, 3024, 4032, 4032, 6048, 7056, 8064, 9072 and 10080.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• The primary multiple of any number is itself.
• The result of any multiplication of whole numbers is a multiple of all the numbers being multiplied together. As such, every multiple is also a multiple of another number.
• Every multiple of even numbers will also be even.
• The successive multiples of odd numbers alternate between odd and even numbers.
• You can also find negative multiples of a number by multiplying by negative numbers.
