Multiples of 60 are obtained when we multiply 60 by natural numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc. Multiplication of any number by 60 gives the multiple of 60. For example, to find the 5th multiple of 60, we need to multiply 60 by 5, such that 60 × 5 = 300 is a multiple of 60. Similarly, we can find the multiples of 60 using the multiplication of numbers.

What are the Multiples of 60?
The multiples of 60 are 60, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 420, 480, 540, 600, etc. These are the first 10 multiples of 60. However, getting the multiples of 60 is quite simple if one knows the multiples of 6. Adding 0s on the right-hand side of multiples of the number 6, we can get the multiples of 60, since 60 is ten times the number 6.
