Multiples of 10

Q: How do you find the multiples of 10?

To find out the multiples of 10, we need to multiply 10 by any natural number. Natural numbers include 1, 2, 3, etc. The results will be multiples of 10. Multiples of 10 will be larger or equal to 10. 10 × 1 = 10 10 × 2 = 20 10 × 3 = 30 10 × 4 = 40 10 × 5 = 50

Q: What is the LCM of 5 and 10?

LCM of 5 and 10 is 10. LCM refers to the Least Common Multiple of two or more numbers. While we find out the LCM of 5 and 10 using the listing method, we need to list the multiples of both 5 and 10. Multiples of 5 are 5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50,… Multiples of 10 are 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100,… Here, the smallest common number that appears in both lists is 10. LCM of 5 and 10 = 10.

Q: What are the real-life applications of Multiples of 10?

Multiples of 10 can be helpful in various real-life situations. We can use them for calculating the price of items, evaluating the value of multiple items, and organizing a number into groups.

Q: Are multiples of 10 finite or infinite?

All the multiples of 10 are infinite. In multiplication, every number has infinite multiples, including a multiple of itself. There are both positive and negative multiples of 10. When we calculate 10 × n, if the integer ‘n’ goes on forever, the multiples of 10 also become infinite.

Q: Is there any odd multiple of 10?

No, there are no odd numbers in the multiples of 10. Because 10 is an even number. If we multiply any even number by any number, we will get an even number as the product. For example, 10 × 1 = 10 10 × 2 = 20 10 × 3 = 30 10 × 4 = 40 10 × 5 = 50

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 10.

What are the Multiples of 10?

Now, let us learn more about multiples of 10. Multiples of 10 are the numbers you get when you multiply 10 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself.

In multiplication, a multiple of 10 can be denoted as 10 × 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 10 × 1 will give us 10 as the product. Multiples of 10 will be larger or equal to 10.

List of First 20 Multiples of 10

Multiples of 10 include the products of 10 and an integer. Multiples of 10 are divisible by 10 evenly. The first few multiples of 10 are given below:

TABLE OF 10 (1-10)
10 x 1 = 10	10 x 6 = 60
10 x 2 = 20	10 x 7 = 70
10 x 3 = 30	10 x 8 = 80
10 x 4 = 40	10 x 9 = 90
10 x 5 = 50	10 x 10 = 100

TABLE OF 10 (11-20)
10 x 11 = 110	10 x 16 = 160
10 x 12 = 120	10 x 17 = 170
10 x 13 = 130	10 x 18 = 180
10 x 14 = 140	10 x 19 = 190
10 x 15 = 150	10 x 20 = 200

Operations with Multiples of 10

Understanding the multiples of 10 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 10, we need to apply them to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Sum of first 5 Multiples of 10:

10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 are the first five multiples of 10. When multiplying 10 from 1 to 5 we get these numbers as the products. So, the sum of these multiples is:

10 + 20 + 30 + 40 + 50 = 150

When we add the first 5 multiples of 10, the answer will be 150.

Subtraction of first 5 Multiples of 10:

While we perform subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 are the first five multiples of 10. So, let us calculate it as given below:

10 - 20 = -10
-10 - 30 = -40
-40 - 40 = -80
-80 - 50 = -130

Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 10 is -130.

Average of first 5 Multiples of 10:

To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 10, 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 10 is 150.

10 + 20 + 30 + 40 + 50 = 150

Next, divide the sum by 5:

150 ÷ 5 = 30

30 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 10.

Product of First 5 Multiples of 10:

The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 10 include: 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50. Now, the product of these numbers is:

10 × 20 × 30 × 40 × 50 = 12,000,000

The product of the first 5 multiples of 10 is 12,000,000.

Division of First 5 Multiples of 10:

While we perform division, we get to know how many times 10 can fit into each of the given multiples. 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 are the first 5 multiples of 10.

10 ÷ 10 = 1
20 ÷ 10 = 2
30 ÷ 10 = 3
40 ÷ 10 = 4
50 ÷ 10 = 5

The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 10 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
