The enumeration of the H-equivalence classes of multiplications on a space is a topic of current interest. In this paper we try to study the H-equivalence classes of multiplications on a CW complex X with finitely many non-vanishing homotopy groups, by using the Postnikov decomposition of X and multiplier arguments [1; 4], This paper presents a way to compute the set of H-equivalence classes of multiplications on X from the knowledge of certain quotient sets of H*(B Λ B, ∑) and some homotopy equivalences of B, where B represents the spaces in the Postnikov decomposition of X, and ∑ denotes abelian groups corresponding to the homotopy groups of X.
