Multiples of 333
Methods
Methods for Finding Multiples:
The most common way to find multiples is to use multiplication. Multiplication of whole numbers always results in multiples of the numbers being multiplied. To find the first few multiples of 333, you could just multiply 333 by 1, then 2, then 3, and so on, until you have as many multiples as you would like. This is shown in the next section.
For younger students that don’t know how to multiply yet, the same result can be found just by counting, or skip-counting. To find multiples of any number, just add the number to itself multiple times. For instance, if you want to find the multiples of 333, start at 333 and keep adding 333 over and over: 333, 666, 999, 1332, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 333.
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 333?
Let’s find the first 10 multiples of 333 by multiplying:
333
∗
1
=
333
333 * 1 = 333
333 ∗ 1 = 333
333
∗
2
=
666
333 * 2 = 666
333 ∗ 2 = 666
333
∗
3
=
999
333 * 3 = 999
333 ∗ 3 = 999
333
∗
4
=
1332
333 * 4 = 1332
333 ∗ 4 = 1332
333

=
1665
333 * 5 = 1665
333 ∗ 5 = 1665
333
∗
6
=
1998
333 * 6 = 1998
333 ∗ 6 = 1998
333
∗
7
=
2331
333 * 7 = 2331
333 ∗ 7 = 2331
333

=
2664
333 * 8 = 2664
333 ∗ 8 = 2664
333
∗
9
=
2997
333 * 9 = 2997
333 ∗ 9 = 2997
333
∗
10
=
3330
333 * 10 = 3330
333 ∗ 10 = 3330
So, the first 10 multiples of 333 are: 333, 666, 999, 1332, 1332, 1998, 2331, 2664, 2997 and 3330.
Interesting Facts about Multiples
• The primary multiple of any number is itself.
• The result of any multiplication of whole numbers is a multiple of all the numbers being multiplied together. As such, every multiple is also a multiple of another number.
• Every multiple of even numbers will also be even.
• The successive multiples of odd numbers alternate between odd and even numbers.
• You can also find negative multiples of a number by multiplying by negative numbers.
