Multiples of 1966
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 1966, you could start at 1966, and keep adding 1966 over and over: 1966, 3932, 5898, 7864, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 1966. 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 1966, you could just multiply 1966 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 1966?
So, what are the multiples of 1966? Letβs write it out using the multiplication method:
1966
Γ
1
=
1966
1966 Γ 1 = 1966
1966 Γ 1 = 1966
1966
Γ
2
=
3932
1966 Γ 2 = 3932
1966 Γ 2 = 3932
1966
Γ
3
=
5898
1966 Γ 3 = 5898
1966 Γ 3 = 5898
1966
Γ
4
=
7864
1966 Γ 4 = 7864
1966 Γ 4 = 7864
1966
Γ
5
=
9830
1966 Γ 5 = 9830
1966 Γ 5 = 9830
1966
Γ
6
=
11796
1966 Γ 6 = 11796
1966 Γ 6 = 11796
1966
Γ
7
=
13762
1966 Γ 7 = 13762
1966 Γ 7 = 13762
1966
Γ
8
=
15728
1966 Γ 8 = 15728
1966 Γ 8 = 15728
1966
Γ
9
=
17694
1966 Γ 9 = 17694
1966 Γ 9 = 17694
1966
Γ
10
=
19660
1966 Γ 10 = 19660
1966 Γ 10 = 19660
So, the first 10 multiples of 1966 are: 1966, 3932, 5898, 7864, 9830, 11796, 13762, 15728, 17694 and 19660.
There are an endless number of multiples of 1966. You could choose any number to multiply by 1966 to find a new multiple!
