Multiples of 1560
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 1560, you could start at 1560, and keep adding 1560 over and over: 1560, 3120, 4680, 6240, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 1560. 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 1560, you could just multiply 1560 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 1560?
So, what are the multiples of 1560? Letβs write it out using the multiplication method:
1560
Γ
1
=
1560
1560 Γ 1 = 1560
1560 Γ 1 = 1560
1560
Γ
2
=
3120
1560 Γ 2 = 3120
1560 Γ 2 = 3120
1560
Γ
3
=
4680
1560 Γ 3 = 4680
1560 Γ 3 = 4680
1560
Γ
4
=
6240
1560 Γ 4 = 6240
1560 Γ 4 = 6240
1560
Γ
5
=
7800
1560 Γ 5 = 7800
1560 Γ 5 = 7800
1560
Γ
6
=
9360
1560 Γ 6 = 9360
1560 Γ 6 = 9360
1560
Γ
7
=
10920
1560 Γ 7 = 10920
1560 Γ 7 = 10920
1560
Γ
8
=
12480
1560 Γ 8 = 12480
1560 Γ 8 = 12480
1560
Γ
9
=
14040
1560 Γ 9 = 14040
1560 Γ 9 = 14040
1560
Γ
10
=
15600
1560 Γ 10 = 15600
1560 Γ 10 = 15600
So, the first 10 multiples of 1560 are: 1560, 3120, 4680, 6240, 7800, 9360, 10920, 12480, 14040 and 15600.
There are an endless number of multiples of 1560. You could choose any number to multiply by 1560 to find a new multiple!
Interesting Facts about Multiples
β’ Every number is considered the smallest multiple of itself.
β’ A multiple of a number is very often also the multiple of another number. This is because if you multiply two numbers together, the result is a multiple of both numbers.
β’ All multiples of even numbers are even.
β’ The multiples of odd numbers, in sequence, alternate between odd and even numbers.
β’ You can also find the negative multiples of a number by multiplying by negative numbers.
