Multiples of 387 are all integers divisible by 387 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 387 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 387. The smallest multiples of 387 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 387 since 0 × 387 = 0
387 : in fact, 387 is a multiple of itself, since 387 is divisible by 387 (it was 387 / 387 = 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 387, the answer is: No, 387 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 387). 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 19.672 ). 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.
