Multiples of 295 are all integers divisible by 295 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 295 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 295. The smallest multiples of 295 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 295 since 0 × 295 = 0
295 : in fact, 295 is a multiple of itself, since 295 is divisible by 295 (it was 295 / 295 = 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 295, the answer is: No, 295 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 295). 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 17.176 ). 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.
