Is 57 a multiple of 6?

Multiple is a number that is divided by another number without a remainder. Lets divide 57 by 6 we have 3 as remainder. So 57 is not a multiple of 6.


Is 356 a multiple of 6?

To be a multiple of 6 a number must be even and a multiple of 3.356 is not a multiple of three. The short cut to that is if the digits add up to a multiple of three then the original number is a multiple of 3.


Are all multiples of 6 also multiples of 3?

Yes, but not all of them. Every multiple of 6 is also a multiple of 3, but there are more multiples of 3 besides those.


Which numbers are multiples of 6?

There are an infinite number of multiples of 6 (numbers that six can divide into evenly with no remainder). Without using a calculator, you can determine if a number is a multiple of 6. To be a multiple of 6, it must have both 3 and 2 as factors. So if the number is even, then 2 is a factor. To determine if it is even, look at the ones digit, and if it is (0,2,4,6, or 8) then it's even. Then to determine if 3 is a factor, add the digits in the number, if this sum is a multiple of 3, then the number is also a multiple of 3 (or you could say 3 is a factor). If both of these are true, then the number is a multiple of 6. Example: 984: Last digit (ones digit) is 4, so it's even. Sum 9+8+4=21, which is a multiple of 3, so the number is a multiple of 3. Therefore it is a multiple of 6.


What is the probability that the product of the numbers will be a multiple of 6?

Assuming 2 randomly selected positive integers are multiplied together, I came up with a 5 in 12 chance (41 2/3 percent ) Here's how I figured it: take the first number and divide by six and examine the remainder (called modulo 6). You have 6 different possibilities (0,1,2,3,4,5), each with a 1 in six chance of occurring. If mod 6 = 0, then the first number is a multiple by 6, and it doesn't matter what the 2nd number is; all products are multiples of 6 as well. If mod 6 = 1 or 5, then the 2nd number must be a multiple of six to get the product to be multiple of 6. The chance of the 2nd number a multiple of six is 1 in 6. If mod 6 = 2, then these are numbers like 2,8,14,20... They are even numbers, so if the second number is a multiple of 3, then the product is multiple of 6. The chance of the 2nd number a multiple of three is 1 in 3. Mod 6 = 3, then first number is multiple of 3 (like 3,9,15,21), and the second number must be even (chance is 1 in 2). Mod 6 = 4, then first number is like 4,10,16,22 It is an even number so the 2nd number must be multiple of 3 (chance is 1 in 3). So in order how I described, we have (1 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/3 + 1/2 + 1/3)*(1/6) which equals 5/12.

What number is divisible by 6 also a multiple of 3?

As 6 is divisible by 3, ANY dumber divisible by 6 is also therefore divisible by 3. Any number divisible by 3 is ALSO a multiple of 3.


Is 3 multiple of 6 WHY?

No. There is no whole number you can multiply 6 by to get 3 (3/6 is 1/2 which isn't a whole number).

How are factors of a number different from the multiples of a number?

Factors divide into a number. A number divides into multiples. 3 is a factor of 6. 12 is a multiple of 6. 6 is both a factor and a multiple of 6.


How are the divisibility rules for 3 6 and 9 alike?

A number is divisible by 3 if the sum of its digits is a multiple of 3. A number is divisible by 6 if the sum of its digits is a multiple of 3 and it's even. A number is divisible by 9 if the sum of its digits is a multiple of 9.
