Multiples of 3502
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 3502, you could just multiply 3502 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 3502, start at 3502 and keep adding 3502 over and over: 3502, 7004, 10506, 14008, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 3502.
There are an endless number of multiples! You can keep using either of these methods to find as many multiples as you would like.

3502 * 9 = 31518
3502 ∗ 9 = 31518
3502
∗
10
=
35020
3502 * 10 = 35020
3502 ∗ 10 = 35020
So, the first 10 multiples of 3502 are: 3502, 7004, 10506, 14008, 14008, 21012, 24514, 28016, 31518 and 35020.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• The primary multiple of any number is itself.
