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 60 using this method, you could start at 60, and keep adding 60 over and over: 60, 120, 180, 240, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 60. 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 60. To find the first few multiples of 60, you could just multiply the 60 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 60?

To find the first 10 multiples of 60, let’s multiply in sequence from 1 to 10:

601=6060 * 1 = 60

602=12060 * 2 = 120

603=18060 * 3 = 180

604=24060 * 4 = 240

605=30060 * 5 = 300

606=36060 * 6 = 360

607=42060 * 7 = 420

608=48060 * 8 = 480

609=54060 * 9 = 540

6010=60060 * 10 = 600

So, the first 10 multiples of 60 are: 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 420, 480, 540 and 600.
