In math, multiples are the products we get while 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 125.

What are the Multiples of 125?

Now, let us learn more about multiples of 125. Multiples of 125 are the numbers you get when you multiply 125 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself. In multiplication, a multiple of 125 can be denoted as 125 × 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 125 × 1 will give us 125 as the product. Multiples of 125 will be larger or equal to 125.
$multiples of 125$

Multiples of 125 include the products of 125 and an integer. Multiples of 125 are divisible by 125 evenly. The first few multiples of 125 are given below:

TABLE OF 124 (1-10)
124 x 1 = 124	124 x 6 = 744
124 x 2 = 248	124 x 7 = 868
124 x 3 = 372	124 x 8 = 992
124 x 4 = 496	124 x 9 = 1116
124 x 5 = 620	124 x 10 = 1240

TABLE OF 124 (11-20)

124 x 15 = 1860	124 x 20 = 2480

Now, we know the first few multiples of 125. They are 0, 125, 250, 375, 500, 625, 750, 875, 1000, 1125, 1250,...

Operations with Multiples of 126

Understanding the multiples of 125 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 125, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Sum of First 5 Multiples of 125:

125, 250, 375, 500, and 625 are the first five multiples of 125. When multiplying 125 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
125 + 250 + 375 + 500 + 625 = 1875
When we add the first 5 multiples of 125, the answer will be 1875.

Subtraction of First 5 Multiples of 125:

While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 125, 250, 375, 500, and 625 are the first five multiples of 125. So, let us calculate it as given below:
125 - 250 = -125
-125 - 375 = -500
-500 - 500 = -1000
-1000 - 625 = -1625
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 125 is -1625.

Average of First 5 Multiples of 125:

To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 125, 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 125 is 1875.
125 + 250 + 375 + 500 + 625 = 1875
Next, divide the sum by 5:
1875 ÷ 5 = 375
375 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 125.

Product of First 5 Multiples of 125:

The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 125 include: 125, 250, 375, 500, and 625. Now, the product of these numbers is:
125 × 250 × 375 × 500 × 625 = 29,296,875,000,000
The product of the first 5 multiples of 125 is 29,296,875,000,000.

Division of First 5 Multiples of 125:

While we perform division, we get to know how many times 125 can fit into each of the given multiples. 125, 250, 375, 500, and 625 are the first 5 multiples of 125.
125 ÷ 125 = 1
250 ÷ 125 = 2
375 ÷ 125 = 3
500 ÷ 125 = 4
625 ÷ 125 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 125 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
