Multiples of 3850
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 3850, you could just multiply 3850 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 3850, start at 3850 and keep adding 3850 over and over: 3850, 7700, 11550, 15400, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 3850.
There are an endless number of multiples! You can keep using either of these methods to find as many multiples as you would like.

3850 * 2 = 7700
3850 ∗ 2 = 7700
3850
∗
3
=
11550
3850 * 3 = 11550
3850 ∗ 3 = 11550
3850
∗

=
15400
3850 * 4 = 15400
3850 ∗ 4 = 15400
3850
∗
5
=
19250
3850 * 5 = 19250
3850 ∗ 5 = 19250
3850
∗
6
=
23100
3850 * 6 = 23100
3850 ∗ 6 = 23100
3850
∗
7
=
26950
3850 * 7 = 26950
3850 ∗ 7 = 26950
3850
∗
8
=
30800
3850 * 8 = 30800
3850 ∗ 8 = 30800
3850
∗
9
=
34650
3850 * 9 = 34650
3850 ∗ 9 = 34650
3850
∗
10
=
38500
3850 * 10 = 38500
3850 ∗ 10 = 38500
So, the first 10 multiples of 3850 are: 3850, 7700, 11550, 15400, 15400, 23100, 26950, 30800, 34650 and 38500.
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.
