Multiples
• A multiple is formed by multiplying a
given number by the counting numbers.
• The counting numbers are 1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
6, etc.
Example: List the multiples of 4:
Counting Numbers
What are the first five
multiples of 13?
13 x 1 =13
13 x 2 = 26
13 x 3 = 39 13, 26, 39, 52, 65
13 x 4 = 52
13 x 5 = 65

Factors
• Factors are the numbers you multiply
together to get a product.
• For example, the product 24 has several
factors.
• 24 = 1 x 24
• 24 = 2 x 12
• 24 = 3 x 8
• 24 = 4 x 6
• SO, the factors are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24
Finding Factors
• Start with 1 x the number.
• Try 2, 3, 4, etc.
• When you repeat your factors, cross out
the repeat - you’re done at this point.
• If you get doubles (such as 4 x 4), then yo
u’re done. Repeats or doubles let you
know you’re done.
What are the factors of 16?
1 x 16
2x8
3 x ?? 3 is not a factor, so cross it out
12

FACTOR OR MULTIPLE?
For each of numbers in the statements, select
either multiple [M] or factor [F]
34 × 5 = 170
[ F] [ M ] [ F ] [ M] [ F ] [ M]
25 × 4 = 100
[ F] [ M ] [ F ] [ M] [ F ] [ M]
90 × 10 = 900
[ F] [ M ] [ F ] [ M] [ F ] [ M]
45 × 6 = 270
[ F] [ M ] [ F ] [ M] [ F ] [ M]
7 × 30 = 210
[ F] [ M ] [F] [M] [F] [M]
