Multiples of 527 are all integers divisible by 527 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 527 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 527. The smallest multiples of 527 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 527 since 0 × 527 = 0
527 : in fact, 527 is a multiple of itself, since 527 is divisible by 527 (it was 527 / 527 = 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 527, the answer is: No, 527 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 527). 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 22.956 ). 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.
