Multiples of 2920
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 2920, you could just multiply 2920 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 2920, start at 2920 and keep adding 2920 over and over: 2920, 5840, 8760, 11680, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 2920.
There are an endless number of multiples! You can keep using either of these methods to find as many multiples as you would like.

=
11680
2920 * 4 = 11680
2920 ∗ 4 = 11680
2920
∗
5
=
14600
2920 * 5 = 14600
2920 ∗ 5 = 14600
2920
∗
6
=
17520
2920 * 6 = 17520
2920 ∗ 6 = 17520
2920
∗
7
=
20440
2920 * 7 = 20440
2920 ∗ 7 = 20440
2920
∗
8
=
23360
2920 * 8 = 23360
2920 ∗ 8 = 23360
2920
∗
9
=
26280
2920 * 9 = 26280
2920 ∗ 9 = 26280
2920
∗
10
=
29200
2920 * 10 = 29200
2920 ∗ 10 = 29200
So, the first 10 multiples of 2920 are: 2920, 5840, 8760, 11680, 11680, 17520, 20440, 23360, 26280 and 29200.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• The primary multiple of any number is itself.
