Multiples of 423 are all integers divisible by 423 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 423 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 423. The smallest multiples of 423 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 423 since 0 × 423 = 0
423 : in fact, 423 is a multiple of itself, since 423 is divisible by 423 (it was 423 / 423 = 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 423, the answer is: No, 423 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 423). 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 20.567 ). 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.
