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 320.
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 320. Multiples of 320 are the numbers you get when you multiply 320 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself.
In multiplication, a multiple of 320 can be denoted as 320 × 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 320 × 1 will give us 320 as the product. Multiples of 320 will be larger or equal to 320.
Multiples of 320 include the products of 320 and an integer. Multiples of 320 are divisible by 320 evenly. The first few multiples of 320 are given below:
TABLE OF 320 (1-10) | |
---|---|
320 x 1 = 320 |
320 x 6 = 1920 |
320 x 2 = 640 |
320 x 7 = 2240 |
320 x 3 = 960 |
320 x 8 = 2560 |
320 x 4 = 1280 |
320 x 9 = 2880 |
320 x 5 = 1600 |
320 x 10 = 3200 |
TABLE OF 320 (11-20) | |

320 x 11 = 3520 |
320 x 16 = 5120 |
320 x 12 = 3840 |
320 x 17 = 5440 |
320 x 13 = 4160 |
320 x 18 = 5760 |
320 x 14 = 4480 |
320 x 19 = 6080 |
320 x 15 = 4800 |
320 x 20 = 6400 |
Now, we know the first few multiples of 320. They are 0, 320, 640, 960, 1280, 1600, 1920, 2240, 2560, 2880, 3200,...
Understanding the multiples of 320 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 320, we need to apply them to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
320, 640, 960, 1280, and 1600 are the first five multiples of 320. When multiplying 320 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
320 + 640 + 960 + 1280 + 1600 = 4800
When we add the first 5 multiples of 320, the answer will be 4800.
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 320, 640, 960, 1280, and 1600 are the first five multiples of 320. So, let us calculate it as given below:
320 - 640 = -320
-320 - 960 = -1280
-1280 - 1280 = -2560
-2560 - 1600 = -4160
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 320 is -4160.
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 320, 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 320 is 4800.
320 + 640 + 960 + 1280 + 1600 = 4800
Next, divide the sum by 5:
4800 ÷ 5 = 960
960 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 320.
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 320 include: 320, 640, 960, 1280, and 1600. Now, the product of these numbers is:
320 × 640 × 960 × 1280 × 1600 = 125,829,120,000,000
The product of the first 5 multiples of 320 is 125,829,120,000,000.
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 320 can fit into each of the given multiples. 320, 640, 960, 1280, and 1600 are the first 5 multiples of 320.
320 ÷ 320 = 1
640 ÷ 320 = 2
960 ÷ 320 = 3
1280 ÷ 320 = 4
1600 ÷ 320 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 320 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
While working with multiples of 320, we make common mistakes. Identifying these errors and understanding how to avoid them can be helpful. Below are some frequent mistakes and tips to avoid them:
A tech company produces 320 gadgets every week. If they maintain this production rate, how many gadgets will they produce after 6 weeks?
1920 gadgets
To find the total number of gadgets produced after 6 weeks, we multiply the number of gadgets produced each week by the number of weeks.
Gadgets produced each week = 320
Number of weeks = 6
320 × 6 = 1920
They will produce 1920 gadgets after 6 weeks.
An art gallery is arranging paintings in sets. The first set contains 320 paintings, the second set has 640 paintings, and the third set has 960 paintings. How many paintings are there in total across all three sets?
1920 paintings
The first set has 320 paintings, the second set 640, and the third set 960. Adding them gives the total number of paintings.
320 + 640 + 960 = 1920
Therefore, there are 1920 paintings in total.
A large conference hall has 320 chairs in each section. If there are 5 sections in the hall, how many chairs are there in total?
1600 chairs
To find the total number of chairs, multiply the number of sections by the number of chairs in each section.
Number of sections = 5
Number of chairs in each section = 320
320 × 5 = 1600
Thus, there are 1600 chairs in total in the hall.
A warehouse stores boxes in stacks. Each stack contains 320 boxes. If there are 7 stacks, how many boxes are there in the warehouse?
2240 boxes
To find the total number of boxes, multiply the number of stacks by the number of boxes in each stack.
Number of stacks = 7
Number of boxes in each stack = 320
320 × 7 = 2240
Therefore, there are 2240 boxes in the warehouse.
In a library, new books are arranged in sections, with each section containing 320 books. If the library has 3 such sections, how many new books are there in total?
960 books
To determine the total number of books, multiply the number of sections by the number of books in each section.
Number of sections = 3
Number of books in each section = 320
320 × 3 = 960
Hence, there are 960 new books in total.
