Multiples of 203
Methods
Methods for Finding Multiples:
For a beginner, you can find the multiples of a number by skip-counting to the next number. For Instance, if you want to find the multiples of 203, you could start at 203, and keep adding 203 over and over: 203, 406, 609, 812, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 203. Typically, this works best only for smaller numbers, as adding larger numbers together over and over can be difficult.
Another way to do this is to use multiplication. To find the first few multiples of 203, you could just multiply 203 by each number in sequence, first multiplying by 1, then 2, then 3, and so on, which we will outline below.
What are the Multiples of 203?
So, what are the multiples of 203? Let’s write it out using the multiplication method:
203

203 × 2 = 406
203 × 2 = 406
203
×
3
=
609
203 × 3 = 609
203 × 3 = 609
203
×
4
=
812
203 × 4 = 812
203 × 4 = 812
203
×
5
=
1015
203 × 5 = 1015
203 × 5 = 1015
203
×
6
=
1218
203 × 6 = 1218
203 × 6 = 1218
203
×
7
=
1421
203 × 7 = 1421
203 × 7 = 1421
203
×
8
=
1624
203 × 8 = 1624
203 × 8 = 1624
203
×
9
=
1827
203 × 9 = 1827
203 × 9 = 1827
203
×
10
=
2030
203 × 10 = 2030
203 × 10 = 2030
So, the first 10 multiples of 203 are: 203, 406, 609, 812, 1015, 1218, 1421, 1624, 1827 and 2030.
There are an endless number of multiples of 203. You could choose any number to multiply by 203 to find a new multiple!
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• Every number is considered the smallest multiple of itself.
• A multiple of a number is very often also the multiple of another number. This is because if you multiply two numbers together, the result is a multiple of both numbers.
• All multiples of even numbers are 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.
