Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following statements about factors and multiples is correct? (2023)
  • Step 1: Understand what a multiple is. A multiple of a number is what you get when you multiply that number by an integer (like 1, 2, 3, etc.).
  • Step 2: Realize that you can keep multiplying the number by larger integers. For example, if the number is 2, the multiples are 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, and so on.
  • Step 3: Notice that there is no limit to how many times you can multiply the number. You can keep adding the number to itself forever.
  • Step 4: Conclude that because you can keep creating new multiples by multiplying by larger integers, a number can have an infinite number of multiples.
