Any number that can be denoted in the form 6n where n is an integer is a multiple of 6. So if two values p and q are there, we say that q is a multiple of p if q = np for some integer n.
Some of the multiples of  include
| 6 | 18 | 21 | 600 | 60 |
All numbers which can be divided or is a product of 6 is a multiple of 6. The multiples are also called factors and it depends on their use in the equation too.
For example, 9, 21, 12 and 66 are all multiples of 6 for the following reasons
| 36 | = | 6 | x | 6 |
| 30 | = | 6 | x | 5 |
| 24 | = | 6 | x | 4 |
| 48 | = | 6 | x | 8 |
These values are called as multiples as these values are obtained by adding or subtracting original value many times.
