Multiples of 794 are all integers divisible by 794 , i.e. the remainder of the full division by 794 is zero. There are infinite multiples of 794. The smallest multiples of 794 are:
0 : in fact, 0 is divisible by any integer, so it is also a multiple of 794 since 0 × 794 = 0
794 : in fact, 794 is a multiple of itself, since 794 is divisible by 794 (it was 794 / 794 = 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 794, the answer is: No, 794 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 794). 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 28.178 ). 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.
