Multiples of 245 are all integers divisible by 245 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 245 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 245. The smallest multiples of 245 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 245 since 0 × 245 = 0
245 : in fact, 245 is a multiple of itself, since 245 is divisible by 245 (it was 245 / 245 = 1, so the rest of this division is zero)
etc.
It is possible to determine using mathematical techniques whether an integer is prime or not.
for 245, the answer is: No, 245 is not a prime number.
To know the primality of an integer, we can use several algorithms. The most naive is to try all divisors below the number you want to know if it is prime (in our case 245). We can already eliminate even numbers bigger than 2 (then 4 , 6 , 8 ...). Besides, we can stop at the square root of the number in question (here 15.652 ). Historically, the Eratosthenes screen (which dates back to Antiquity) uses this technique relatively effectively.
More modern techniques include the Atkin screen, probabilistic tests, or the cyclotomic test.
