Multiples of 218

Professor Greenline Explaining Math Concepts

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 218.

What are the Multiples of 218?

Now, let us learn more about multiples of 218. Multiples of 218 are the numbers you get when you multiply 218 by any whole number, along with zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself. In multiplication, a multiple of 218 can be denoted as 218 × 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 218 × 1 will give us 218 as the product. Multiples of 218 will be larger or equal to 218.

Operations with Multiples of 218

Understanding the multiples of 218 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 218, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

##Sum of First 5 Multiples of 218:

218, 436, 654, 872, and 1090 are the first five multiples of 218. When multiplying 218 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.  
So, the sum of these multiples is:  
218 + 436 + 654 + 872 + 1090 = 3270  
When we add the first 5 multiples of 218, the answer will be 3270.  

##Subtraction of First 5 Multiples of 218:

While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 218, 436, 654, 872, and 1090 are the first five multiples of 218. So, let us calculate it as given below:  
218 - 436 = -218  
-218 - 654 = -872  
-872 - 872 = -1744  
-1744 - 1090 = -2834  
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 218 is -2834.

##Average of First 5 Multiples of 218:

To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 218, 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 218 is 3270.  
218 + 436 + 654 + 872 + 1090 = 3270  
Next, divide the sum by 5:  
3270 ÷ 5 = 654  
654 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 218.

##Product of First 5 Multiples of 218:

The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 218 include: 218, 436, 654, 872, and 1090. Now, the product of these numbers is:  
218 × 436 × 654 × 872 × 1090 = 11,195,822,272,000  
The product of the first 5 multiples of 218 is 11,195,822,272,000.

##Division of First 5 Multiples of 218:

While we perform division, we get to know how many times 218 can fit into each of the given multiples. 218, 436, 654, 872, and 1090 are the first 5 multiples of 218.  
218 ÷ 218 = 1  
436 ÷ 218 = 2  
654 ÷ 218 = 3  
872 ÷ 218 = 4  
1090 ÷ 218 = 5  
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 218 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Green Checkmark Icon Indicating Correct Solutions in This Math Topic

Sometimes, students get confused between the multiples and factors of 218. A simple trick to differentiate between the two is to remember that multiples are the products of multiplication, while factors are the divisors of the number. Multiples of 218 refer to the products we get while multiplying 218 with other numbers. For example, multiples of 218 include 0, 218, 436, 654, 872, 1090...
   The factors of 218 are 1, 2, 109, and 218. When 218 is divided by 1, 2, 109, and 218, the remainder will be zero. These are the factors of 218 meaning that these numbers can divide 218 without any remainder.

   Factors of 218:
   218 ÷ 1 = 218  
   218 ÷ 2 = 109  
   218 ÷ 109 = 2  
   218 ÷ 218 = 1

Multiples of 218 Examples

Ray, the Character from BrightChamps Explaining Math Concepts
Max, the Girl Character from BrightChamps

Problem 1

A farmer is organizing his produce delivery in crates. Each crate holds 218 apples. If he continues to pack apples in crates like this for 5 weeks, how many apples will he have delivered by the end of the period?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

1,090 apples  
 

Explanation

 Each week, he packs 218 apples into crates. To find the total number of apples delivered after 5 weeks, we multiply 218 by 5.

Apples delivered each week = 218  
Number of weeks = 5  

218 × 5 = 1,090  

He will have delivered 1,090 apples by the end of 5 weeks.

Problem 2

In a city library, books are organized into sections of 218. The first section has 218 books, the second section has twice that number, and the third section has three times the number of books as the first section. How many books are there in total in these three sections?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

1,308 books  
 

Explanation

We identify the multiples of 218 as follows:

First section: 218 × 1 = 218  
Second section: 218 × 2 = 436  
Third section: 218 × 3 = 654  

Total books = 218 + 436 + 654 = 1,308  

Therefore, there are 1,308 books in total across the three sections.

Problem 3

A construction company places streetlights along a highway every 218 meters. If the highway is 1,744 meters long, how many streetlights are needed?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

8 streetlights  
 

Explanation

To find the number of streetlights needed, divide the length of the highway by the distance between streetlights.

Highway length = 1,744 meters  
Distance between streetlights = 218 meters  

1,744 ÷ 218 = 8  

Thus, 8 streetlights are needed.

Problem 4

During a charity event, volunteers pack 218 meals in each shift. If there are 6 shifts in a day, how many meals are packed in total by the end of the day?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

1,308 meals  
 

Explanation

Multiply the number of meals packed per shift by the number of shifts.

Meals per shift = 218  
Number of shifts = 6  

218 × 6 = 1,308  

Therefore, 1,308 meals are packed by the end of the day.

Problem 5

A research team is collecting water samples from a river at intervals of 218 meters. They plan to cover a distance of 872 meters. How many samples will they collect?

Ray, the Boy Character from BrightChamps Saying "Let’s Begin"

 4 samples  
 

Explanation

Divide the total distance by the sampling interval to determine the number of samples collected.

Total distance = 872 meters  
Sampling interval = 218 meters  

872 ÷ 218 = 4  

Therefore, the team will collect 4 samples.
