Multiples of 2 are even numbers. Even numbers end in 0, 2, 4, 6 or 8. If they didn't end in those numbers, they wouldn't be even numbers or multiples of 2.

What are the multiples of the numbers from 1 to 200?

Multiples of 1- 1, 2 3, 4 ,5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10-- Like counting Multiples of 2- 2,4,6,8,10,12, ect. Multiples of 3- 3,6,9,12,15,18,21,24,27,30,33,36,39,42,45,48,51,54, Multiples of 4- Multiples of 5- Multiples of 6


How many numbers from 1 to 100 are multiples of 2 3 4 6 8 9?

Assuming you mean that you want the number of multiples of each, then for 1-100: number of multiples of 2 = 50 number of multiples of 3 = 33 number of multiples of 4 = 25 number of multiples of 6 = 16 number of multiples of 8 = 12 number of multiples of 9 = 11 Assuming you mean that you want the numbers that are multiples of 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 or 9, then some numbers may be multiples of more than one (for example 12 is a multiple of 2, 3, 4 and 6) and so a straight addition of the number of multiples of each cannot be done: Consider 2, 4 and 8 Every multiple of 4 or 8 is also a multiple of 2, so all the multiples of 4 and 8 are counted by the multiples of 2. Consider 3 and 9 Every multiple of 9 is also a multiple of 3, so all the multiples of 9 are counted by the multiple of 3 Consider 2, 3 and 6. Every multiple of 6 is an even multiple of 3, so are counted in both the multiples of 2 and 3. So the total number of multiples of 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 or 9 is the number of multiples of 2 plus the number of multiples of 3 minus the number of multiples of 6: For 1 to 100, Number of multiples of 2 = 50 Number of multiples of 3 = 33 Number of multiples of 6 = 16 So number of multiples of 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 or 9 in 1-100 is 50+33-16 = 67. Assuming you mean that they are multiples of all of 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9, then they must be multiples of the lowest common multiple of 2, 3, 4, 6 ,8, 9 2 = 21, 3 = 31, 4 = 22, 6 = 2131, 8 = 23, 9 = 32 LCM = highest power of the primes used = 2332 = 72 Thus all numbers that are multiples of 2, 3, 4, 6, 8 and 9 are multiples of 72, which means between 1 and 100 only 1 number is a multiple of all of them, namely 72


What are the multiples of 6 4 3?

Multiples of 6: 1,2,3,6 Multiples of 4: 1,2,4 Multiples of 3: 1,3


What is multiples of 123456789101112?

Do you mean 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12? Do you want multiples of each one separately? e.g. multiples of 2, multiples of 3, multiples of 4? The answers to the times tables will do it if that is what you want. eg 2, 4, 6, 8, 10... 3, 6, 9, 12, 15... 4, 8, 12, 16, 20... etc.
