Multiples of 723 are all integers divisible by 723 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 723 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 723. The smallest multiples of 723 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 723 since 0 × 723 = 0
723 : in fact, 723 is a multiple of itself, since 723 is divisible by 723 (it was 723 / 723 = 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 723, the answer is: No, 723 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 723). 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 26.889 ). 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.
