Multiples of 372
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 372, you could just multiply 372 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 372, start at 372 and keep adding 372 over and over: 372, 744, 1116, 1488, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 372.
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 372?
Let’s find the first 10 multiples of 372 by multiplying:
372
∗
1
=
372
372 * 1 = 372
372 ∗ 1 = 372
372
∗
2
=
744
372 * 2 = 744
372 ∗ 2 = 744
372
∗

=
1116
372 * 3 = 1116
372 ∗ 3 = 1116
372
∗
4
=
1488
372 * 4 = 1488
372 ∗ 4 = 1488
372

=
1860
372 * 5 = 1860
372 ∗ 5 = 1860
372
∗
6
=
2232
372 * 6 = 2232
372 ∗ 6 = 2232
372
∗
7
=
2604
372 * 7 = 2604
372 ∗ 7 = 2604
372
∗

=
2976
372 * 8 = 2976
372 ∗ 8 = 2976
372
∗
9
=
3348
372 * 9 = 3348
372 ∗ 9 = 3348
372
∗
10
=
3720
372 * 10 = 3720
372 ∗ 10 = 3720
So, the first 10 multiples of 372 are: 372, 744, 1116, 1488, 1488, 2232, 2604, 2976, 3348 and 3720.
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.
