The product of a number with any integer is called the multiple of that number.
If a number p is multiplied with an integer q, then its multiple (product) n is given as n = p × q
The multiples of 6 are 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, . . . . .
- 36, - 2, 6, 18 are the multiples of 2.
6 is a multiple of 2 and also 3.
A. 3, 9, 6, 16, 19, 22, and 26
B. 6, 9, 12, 16, 19, 22, and 24
C. 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21
D. None of the above
Correct Answer: C
Step 1: A multiple of a number is the product of the number with an integer.
Step 2: 1 × 3 = 3
2 × 3 = 6
3 × 3 = 9
4 × 3 = 12
5 × 3 = 15
6 × 3 = 18
7 × 3 = 21 [Write the multiples of 3.]
Step 3: So, the first seven multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, and 21.
