Multiples of 280
Methods
Methods for Finding Multiples:
To get started with multiples, the easiest way is just to add a number to itself over and over again. For instance, if you want to find the multiples of 280 using this method, you could start at 280, and keep adding 280 over and over: 280, 560, 840, 1120, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 280. Usually, this method works with numbers that are easily added to itself. As you get into larger numbers, it can become difficult to continue adding.
Another way to do this, as discussed above, is to use choose any number and multiply it by 280. To find the first few multiples of 280, you could just multiply the 280 by 1, then 2, then 3, and so on, until you have as many multiples as you would like.
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 280?
To find the first 10 multiples of 280, let’s multiply in sequence from 1 to 10:
280
∗
1
=
280
280 * 1 = 280
280 ∗ 1 = 280
280
∗
2
=
560
280 * 2 = 560
280 ∗ 2 = 560
280
∗
3
=
840
280 * 3 = 840
280 ∗ 3 = 840
280
∗
4
=
1120
280 * 4 = 1120
280 ∗ 4 = 1120
280
∗
5
=
1400
280 * 5 = 1400
280 ∗ 5 = 1400
280
∗
6
=
1680
280 * 6 = 1680
280 ∗ 6 = 1680
280
∗
7
=
1960
280 * 7 = 1960
280 ∗ 7 = 1960
280
∗
8
=
2240
280 * 8 = 2240
280 ∗ 8 = 2240
280
∗
9
=
2520
280 * 9 = 2520
280 ∗ 9 = 2520
280
∗
10
=
2800
280 * 10 = 2800
280 ∗ 10 = 2800
So, the first 10 multiples of 280 are: 280, 560, 840, 1120, 1400, 1680, 1960, 2240, 2520 and 2800.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
