Multiples of 1983
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 1983 using this method, you could start at 1983, and keep adding 1983 over and over: 1983, 3966, 5949, 7932, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 1983. 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 1983. To find the first few multiples of 1983, you could just multiply the 1983 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 1983?
To find the first 10 multiples of 1983, let’s multiply in sequence from 1 to 10:
1983
∗
1
=
1983
1983 * 1 = 1983
1983 ∗ 1 = 1983
1983
∗
2
=
3966
1983 * 2 = 3966
1983 ∗ 2 = 3966
1983
∗
3
=
5949
1983 * 3 = 5949
1983 ∗ 3 = 5949
1983
∗
4
=
7932
1983 * 4 = 7932
1983 ∗ 4 = 7932
1983
∗
5
=
9915
1983 * 5 = 9915
1983 ∗ 5 = 9915
1983
∗
6
=
11898
1983 * 6 = 11898
1983 ∗ 6 = 11898
1983
∗
7
=
13881
1983 * 7 = 13881
1983 ∗ 7 = 13881
1983
∗
8
=
15864
1983 * 8 = 15864
1983 ∗ 8 = 15864
1983
∗
9
=
17847
1983 * 9 = 17847
1983 ∗ 9 = 17847
1983
∗
10
=
19830
1983 * 10 = 19830
1983 ∗ 10 = 19830
So, the first 10 multiples of 1983 are: 1983, 3966, 5949, 7932, 9915, 11898, 13881, 15864, 17847 and 19830.
