What is a multiple in KS1 maths?

In KS1 maths, a multiple is a number that you get when you multiply one number by another whole number. 

It’s a bit like counting in steps of that number.

For instance:

2, 4, 6, 8, 10... these numbers are multiples of 2

5, 10, 15, 20... these are multiples of 5

Multiples are what you get when you keep adding the same number again and again. 

It's an important way for children to begin to understand patterns in numbers and get ready for multiplication.
