Multiples of 13
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 13 using this method, you could start at 13, and keep adding 13 over and over: 13, 26, 39, 52, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 13. 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 13. To find the first few multiples of 13, you could just multiply the 13 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 13?
To find the first 10 multiples of 13, let’s multiply in sequence from 1 to 10:
13
∗
1
=
13
13 * 1 = 13
13 ∗ 1 = 13
13
∗
2
=
26
13 * 2 = 26
13 ∗ 2 = 26
13
∗
3
=
39
13 * 3 = 39
13 ∗ 3 = 39
13
∗
4
=
52
13 * 4 = 52
13 ∗ 4 = 52
13
∗
5
=
65
13 * 5 = 65
13 ∗ 5 = 65
13
∗
6
=
78
13 * 6 = 78
13 ∗ 6 = 78
13
∗
7
=
91
13 * 7 = 91
13 ∗ 7 = 91
13
∗
8
=
104
13 * 8 = 104
13 ∗ 8 = 104
13
∗
9
=
117
13 * 9 = 117
13 ∗ 9 = 117
13
∗
10
=
130
13 * 10 = 130
13 ∗ 10 = 130
So, the first 10 multiples of 13 are: 13, 26, 39, 52, 65, 78, 91, 104, 117 and 130.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• The smallest multiple of any number is itself.
• When you multiply two numbers together, the result is a multiple of both numbers.
• Every multiple of even numbers will also be even.
• The multiples of odd numbers, in sequence, alternate between odd and even numbers.
• You can also find the negative multiples of a number by multiplying by negative numbers.
