Multiples
Multiples are the results of multiplying a number by whole numbers.
A multiple of a number is any product that can be obtained by multiplying that number by an integer.
For example, the multiples of 3 are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, ...
Factors
Factors are numbers that can divide another number without leaving a remainder.
A factor of a number divides the number evenly.
For example, the factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12.
Examples
- Multiples of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, ...
4 x 1 = 4
4 x 2 = 8
4 x 3 = 12
- Factors of 18: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
1 x 18 = 18
2 x 9 = 18
3 x 6 = 18
