Multiples of 1989
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 1989 using this method, you could start at 1989, and keep adding 1989 over and over: 1989, 3978, 5967, 7956, and so on. Each of these numbers is a multiple of 1989. 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 1989. To find the first few multiples of 1989, you could just multiply the 1989 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 1989?
To find the first 10 multiples of 1989, let’s multiply in sequence from 1 to 10:
1989
∗
1
=
1989
1989 * 1 = 1989
1989 ∗ 1 = 1989
1989
∗
2
=
3978
1989 * 2 = 3978
1989 ∗ 2 = 3978
1989
∗
3
=
5967
1989 * 3 = 5967
1989 ∗ 3 = 5967
1989
∗
4
=
7956
1989 * 4 = 7956
1989 ∗ 4 = 7956
1989
∗
5
=
9945
1989 * 5 = 9945
1989 ∗ 5 = 9945
1989
∗
6
=
11934
1989 * 6 = 11934
1989 ∗ 6 = 11934
1989
∗
7
=
13923
1989 * 7 = 13923
1989 ∗ 7 = 13923
1989
∗
8
=
15912
1989 * 8 = 15912
1989 ∗ 8 = 15912
1989
∗
9
=
17901
1989 * 9 = 17901
1989 ∗ 9 = 17901
1989
∗
10
=
19890
1989 * 10 = 19890
1989 ∗ 10 = 19890
So, the first 10 multiples of 1989 are: 1989, 3978, 5967, 7956, 9945, 11934, 13923, 15912, 17901 and 19890.
