Multiples of 47
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 47 using this method, you could start at 47, and keep adding 47 over and over: 47, 94, 141, 188, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 47. 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 47. To find the first few multiples of 47, you could just multiply the 47 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 47?
To find the first 10 multiples of 47, let’s multiply in sequence from 1 to 10:
47
∗
1
=
47
47 * 1 = 47
47 ∗ 1 = 47
47
∗
2
=
94
47 * 2 = 94
47 ∗ 2 = 94
47
∗
3
=
141
47 * 3 = 141
47 ∗ 3 = 141
47
∗
4
=
188
47 * 4 = 188
47 ∗ 4 = 188
47
∗
5
=
235
47 * 5 = 235
47 ∗ 5 = 235
47
∗
6
=
282
47 * 6 = 282
47 ∗ 6 = 282
47
∗
7
=
329
47 * 7 = 329
47 ∗ 7 = 329
47
∗
8
=
376
47 * 8 = 376
47 ∗ 8 = 376
47
∗
9
=
423
47 * 9 = 423
47 ∗ 9 = 423
47
∗
10
=
470
47 * 10 = 470
47 ∗ 10 = 470
So, the first 10 multiples of 47 are: 47, 94, 141, 188, 235, 282, 329, 376, 423 and 470.
