Question

Write the first five multiples of $3$?

Answer 1

MULTIPLES: A multiple of a number obtained by multiplying it by a natural number.

Given number is $3$, to get the first five multiples, we have to multiply $3$ by $1,2,3,4$ and $5$

We get,

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{3\; \times \; 1\; =\; 3,} \\ \mathrm{3\; \times \; 2\; =\; 6,} \\ \mathrm{3\; \times \; 3\; =\; 9,} \\ \mathrm{3\; \times \; 4\; =\; 12,} \\ \mathrm{3\; \times \; 5\; =\; 15} \end{gathered}$$

Hence, first five multiples of $3$ are $3,6,9,12,15$.
