Multiples of 2985
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 2985 using this method, you could start at 2985, and keep adding 2985 over and over: 2985, 5970, 8955, 11940, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 2985. 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 2985. To find the first few multiples of 2985, you could just multiply the 2985 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 2985?
To find the first 10 multiples of 2985, let’s multiply in sequence from 1 to 10:
2985
∗
1
=
2985
2985 * 1 = 2985
2985 ∗ 1 = 2985
2985
∗
2
=
5970
2985 * 2 = 5970
2985 ∗ 2 = 5970
2985
∗
3
=
8955
2985 * 3 = 8955
2985 ∗ 3 = 8955
2985
∗
4
=
11940
2985 * 4 = 11940
2985 ∗ 4 = 11940
2985
∗
5
=
14925
2985 * 5 = 14925
2985 ∗ 5 = 14925
2985
∗
6
=
17910
2985 * 6 = 17910
2985 ∗ 6 = 17910
2985
∗
7
=
20895
2985 * 7 = 20895
2985 ∗ 7 = 20895
2985
∗
8
=
23880
2985 * 8 = 23880
2985 ∗ 8 = 23880
2985
∗
9
=
26865
2985 * 9 = 26865
2985 ∗ 9 = 26865
2985
∗
10
=
29850
2985 * 10 = 29850
2985 ∗ 10 = 29850
So, the first 10 multiples of 2985 are: 2985, 5970, 8955, 11940, 14925, 17910, 20895, 23880, 26865 and 29850.
