Multiples of 124
In math, multiples are the products we get when multiplying a number with other numbers. Multiples play a key role in construction and design, counting groups of items, sharing resources equally, and managing time effectively. In this topic, we will learn the essential concepts of multiples of 124.
What are the Multiples of 124?
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 124. Multiples of 124 are the numbers you get when you multiply 124 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself. In multiplication, a multiple of 124 can be denoted as 124 × n, where ‘n’ represents any whole number (0, 1, 2, 3,…). So, we can summarize that:
Multiple of a number = Number × Any whole number
For example, multiplying 124 × 1 will give us 124 as the product. Multiples of 124 will be larger or equal to 124.

Operations with Multiples of 124
Understanding the multiples of 124 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 124, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Sum of first 5 Multiples of 124:
124, 248, 372, 496, and 620 are the first five multiples of 124. When multiplying 124 from 1 to 5 we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
124 + 248 + 372 + 496 + 620 = 1860
When we add the first 5 multiples of 124 the answer will be 1860.
Subtraction of first 5 Multiples of 124:
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 124, 248, 372, 496, and 620 are the first five multiples of 124. So, let us calculate it as given below:
124 - 248 = -124
-124 - 372 = -496
-496 - 496 = -992
-992 - 620 = -1612
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 124 is -1612.
Average of first 5 Multiples of 124:
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 124, and then divide it by the count, i.e., 5. Because there are 5 multiples presented in the calculation. Averaging helps us to understand the concepts of central tendencies and other values. We know the sum of the first 5 multiples of 124 is 1860.
124 + 248 + 372 + 496 + 620 = 1860
Next, divide the sum by 5:
1860 ÷ 5 = 372
372 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 124.
Product of First 5 Multiples of 124:
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 124 include: 124, 248, 372, 496, and 620. Now, the product of these numbers is:
124 × 248 × 372 × 496 × 620 = 22,737,088,640
The product of the first 5 multiples of 124 is 22,737,088,640.
Division of First 5 Multiples of 124:
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 124 can fit into each of the given multiples. 124, 248, 372, 496, and 620 are the first 5 multiples of 124.
124 ÷ 124 = 1
248 ÷ 124 = 2
372 ÷ 124 = 3
496 ÷ 124 = 4
620 ÷ 124 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 124 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Multiples of 124 Examples
Problem 1
Maya is arranging chairs in the auditorium for a concert. She arranges the chairs in groups of 124. If she continues arranging the chairs in groups of 124 for 5 days, how many chairs will she have set up by the end of the week?
620 chairs
Explanation
Each day, Maya sets up 124 chairs. To find the total number of chairs set up after 5 days, we multiply the number of chairs set up each day by the number of days.
Chairs set up each day = 124
Number of days = 5
124 × 5 = 620
Maya will have set up 620 chairs by the end of the week.
Problem 2
In a factory, workers produce widgets in batches. The first worker produces 124 widgets, the second worker produces 248 widgets, and the third worker produces 372 widgets. How many widgets do they produce in total?
744 widgets
Explanation
The workers produce widgets in multiples of 124. The first three multiples of 124 are:
124 × 1 = 124
124 × 2 = 248
124 × 3 = 372
Adding these together gives the total number of widgets produced:
124 + 248 + 372 = 744
Therefore, the workers produce a total of 744 widgets.
Problem 3
A large cargo ship is loaded with containers. Each container holds 124 packages. If there are 10 containers on the ship, how many packages are there in total?
A printing press produces books in batches, with each batch containing 124 books. If the press runs for 7 days, producing one batch per day, how many books will be printed in total?
Explanation
To find the total number of packages, we multiply the number of containers by the number of packages each container holds.
Number of containers = 10
Packages in each container = 124
10 × 124 = 1240
There are 1240 packages on the ship.
Problem 4
A printing press produces books in batches, with each batch containing 124 books. If the press runs for 7 days, producing one batch per day, how many books will be printed in total?
868 books
Explanation
To find the total number of books printed, multiply the number of days the press runs by the number of books in each batch.
Number of days = 7
Books per batch = 124
7 × 124 = 868
The printing press will produce 868 books in total.
Problem 5
A school is organizing its library. Each shelf holds 124 books. If there are 6 shelves filled completely, how many books are there in the library?
744 books
Explanation
To find the total number of books, multiply the number of shelves by the number of books each shelf holds.
Number of shelves = 6
Books per shelf = 124
6 × 124 = 744
Therefore, there are 744 books in the library.
