Multiples of 72

Now, let us learn more about multiples of 72. Multiples of 72 are the numbers you get when you multiply 72 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself. In multiplication, a multiple of 72 can be denoted as 72 × 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 72 × 1 will give us 72 as the product. Multiples of 72 will be larger or equal to 72.

Multiples of 72 include the products of 72 and an integer. Multiples of 72 are divisible by 72 evenly. The first few multiples of 72 are given below:

Now, we know the first few multiples of 72. They are 0, 72, 144, 216, 288, 360, 432, 504, 576, 648, 720, ...

Understanding the multiples of 72 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 72, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Sum of First 5 Multiples of 72:

72, 144, 216, 288, and 360 are the first five multiples of 72. When multiplying 72 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.  
So, the sum of these multiples is:
72 + 144 + 216 + 288 + 360 = 1080
When we add the first 5 multiples of 72, the answer will be 1080.  

Subtraction of First 5 Multiples of 72:

While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 72, 144, 216, 288, and 360 are the first five multiples of 72. So, let us calculate it as given below:
72 - 144 = -72
-72 - 216 = -288
-288 - 288 = -576
-576 - 360 = -936
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 72 is -936.

Average of First 5 Multiples of 72:

To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 72, 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 72 is 1080.
72 + 144 + 216 + 288 + 360 = 1080
Next, divide the sum by 5:
1080 ÷ 5 = 216
216 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 72.

Product of First 5 Multiples of 72:

The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 72 include: 72, 144, 216, 288, and 360. Now, the product of these numbers is:
72 × 144 × 216 × 288 × 360 = 1,938,962,496,000
The product of the first 5 multiples of 72 is 1,938,962,496,000.

Division of First 5 Multiples of 72:

While we perform division, we get to know how many times 72 can fit into each of the given multiples. 72, 144, 216, 288, and 360 are the first 5 multiples of 72.
72 ÷ 72 = 1
144 ÷ 72 = 2
216 ÷ 72 = 3
288 ÷ 72 = 4
360 ÷ 72 = 5    
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 72 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

• Multiple: A multiple represents the product of a number that may be multiplied by an integer. For example, multiples of 72 include 72, 144, 216, 288, etc.

• Number pattern: This refers to how numbers are listed. It should follow a certain sequence. Multiples of 72 are the numbers that consist of the number pattern of 72.

• Even number: An even number refers to any number that can be divisible by 2 without leaving any remainder. The last digits of even numbers are 0, 2, 4, 6, or 8. All multiples of 72 are even numbers.

• Divisor: It refers to any number by which another number can be divided without leaving any remainder. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, and 72 are the divisors of 72.

• Least Common Multiple (LCM): The smallest multiple that is exactly divisible by each number in a set of numbers. For example, the LCM of 72 and 90 is 360, as it is the smallest number in both lists of multiples.
