Multiples of 578 are all integers divisible by 578 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 578 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 578. The smallest multiples of 578 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 578 since 0 × 578 = 0
578 : in fact, 578 is a multiple of itself, since 578 is divisible by 578 (it was 578 / 578 = 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 578, the answer is: No, 578 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 578). 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 24.042 ). 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.
