Multiples of 81

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 81.

What are the Multiples of 81?

Now, let us learn more about multiples of 81. Multiples of 81 are the numbers you get when you multiply 81 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 81 can be denoted as 81 × 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 81 × 1 will give us 81 as the product. Multiples of 81 will be larger or equal to 81.

Operations with Multiples of 81

Understanding the multiples of 81 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 81, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

 

Sum of First 5 Multiples of 81

81, 162, 243, 324, and 405 are the first five multiples of 81. When multiplying 81 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.  
So, the sum of these multiples is:  
81 + 162 + 243 + 324 + 405 = 1215  
When we add the first 5 multiples of 81, the answer will be 1215.

 

Subtraction of First 5 Multiples of 81

While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 81, 162, 243, 324, and 405 are the first five multiples of 81. So, let us calculate it as given below:  
81 - 162 = -81  
-81 - 243 = -324  
-324 - 324 = -648  
-648 - 405 = -1053  
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 81 is -1053.

 

Average of First 5 Multiples of 81

To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 81, 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 81 is 1215.  
81 + 162 + 243 + 324 + 405 = 1215  
Next, divide the sum by 5:  
1215 ÷ 5 = 243  
243 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 81.

 

Product of First 5 Multiples of 81

The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 81 include: 81, 162, 243, 324, and 405. Now, the product of these numbers is:  
81 × 162 × 243 × 324 × 405 = 10,616,424,210  
The product of the first 5 multiples of 81 is 10,616,424,210.

 

Division of First 5 Multiples of 81

While we perform division, we get to know how many times 81 can fit into each of the given multiples. 81, 162, 243, 324, and 405 are the first 5 multiples of 81.  
81 ÷ 81 = 1  
162 ÷ 81 = 2  
243 ÷ 81 = 3  
324 ÷ 81 = 4  
405 ÷ 81 = 5  
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 81 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 81. 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 81 refer to the products we get while multiplying 81 with other numbers. For example, multiples of 81 include 0, 81, 162, 243, 324, 405, 486, 567, 648, 729, 810…  
The factors of 81 are 1, 3, 9, 27, and 81. When 81 is divided by these numbers, the remainder will be zero.

Factors of 81:  
81 ÷ 1 = 81  
81 ÷ 3 = 27  
81 ÷ 9 = 9  
81 ÷ 27 = 3  
81 ÷ 81 = 1

Problem 1

In a small town, the community center holds a bingo night where every game has 81 participants. If they host bingo night 5 times a month, how many participants will there be over 3 months?

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

1,215 participants  

Explanation

Each bingo night has 81 participants. To find the total number of participants over 3 months, multiply the number of participants per game by the number of nights and then by the number of months.  

Participants per game = 81  
Number of bingo nights per month = 5  
Number of months = 3  

81 × 5 × 3 = 1,215  

There will be 1,215 participants over 3 months.

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

486 sculptures

Explanation

The first series has 81 sculptures, the second series has 162, and the third series has 243. Adding them gives the total number of sculptures.  

81 + 162 + 243 = 486  

There are a total of 486 sculptures in the three series.

Problem 3

A factory produces boxes in batches of 81. If the factory works for 7 days, producing one batch per day, how many boxes are produced in total?

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

567 boxes

Explanation

The factory produces 81 boxes per day. To find the total number of boxes produced over 7 days, multiply the number of boxes per day by the number of days.  

Boxes per day = 81  
Number of days = 7  

81 × 7 = 567  

The factory produces a total of 567 boxes in 7 days
