Multiples

Multiple is a product of any quantity and an integer. In mathematical terms, y is a multiple of x; if y = nx where n is an integer.

For example, multiples of 3 are … -9, -6, -3, 0, 3, 6, 9…

        3 x -3 = -9

        3 x -2 = -6

        3 x -1 = -3

        3 x 0 = 0

        3 x 1 = 3

        3 x 2 = 6

        3 x 3 = 9 (and so on)

Positive multiples of 3 are: 3(1), 3(2), 3(3), 3(4) and so on

        = 3, 6, 9, 12….
