Multiples of 156

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 156.

What are the Multiples of 156?

Now, let us learn more about multiples of 156. Multiples of 156 are the numbers you get when you multiply 156 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself.

 

In multiplication, a multiple of 156 can be denoted as 156 × 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 156 × 1 will give us 156 as the product. Multiples of 156 will be larger or equal to 156.

Operations with Multiples of 156

Understanding the multiples of 156 helps solve mathematical problems and boosts our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 156, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

 

Sum of First 5 Multiples of 156:

 

156, 312, 468, 624, and 780 are the first five multiples of 156. When multiplying 156 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.

 
So, the sum of these multiples is:


156 + 312 + 468 + 624 + 780 = 2340  


When we add the first 5 multiples of 156, the answer will be 2340.

 

Subtraction of First 5 Multiples of 156:

 

While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 156, 312, 468, 624, and 780 are the first five multiples of 156. So, let us calculate it as given below:


156 - 312 = -156  
-156 - 468 = -624  
-624 - 624 = -1248  
-1248 - 780 = -2028  


Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 156 is -2028.

 

Average of First 5 Multiples of 156:

 

To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 156, 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 156 is 2340.  


156 + 312 + 468 + 624 + 780 = 2340  


Next, divide the sum by 5:  


2340 ÷ 5 = 468  


468 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 156.

 

Product of First 5 Multiples of 156:

 

The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 156 include: 156, 312, 468, 624, and 780. Now, the product of these numbers is:  


156 × 312 × 468 × 624 × 780 = 11,311,953,280  


The product of the first 5 multiples of 156 is 11,311,953,280.

 

Division of First 5 Multiples of 156:

 

While we perform division, we get to know how many times 156 can fit into each of the given multiples. 156, 312, 468, 624, and 780 are the first 5 multiples of 156.  


156 ÷ 156 = 1  
312 ÷ 156 = 2  
468 ÷ 156 = 3  
624 ÷ 156 = 4  
780 ÷ 156 = 5  


The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 156 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Sometimes, students get confused between the multiples and factors of 156. 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 156 refer to the products we get while multiplying 156 with other numbers. For example, multiples of 156 include 0, 156, 312, 468, 624, 780, 936, 1092, 1248, 1404, 1560, etc.

 
The factors of 156 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12, 13, 26, 39, 52, 78, and 156. When 156 is divided by these numbers, the remainder will be zero. These are the factors of 156, meaning that these numbers can divide 156 without any remainder.

 

   Factors of 156:

 
   156 ÷ 1 = 156  
   156 ÷ 2 = 78  
   156 ÷ 3 = 52  
   156 ÷ 4 = 39  
   156 ÷ 6 = 26  
   156 ÷ 12 = 13  
   156 ÷ 13 = 12  
   156 ÷ 26 = 6  
   156 ÷ 39 = 4  
   156 ÷ 52 = 3  
   156 ÷ 78 = 2  
   156 ÷ 156 = 1

Multiples of 156 Examples

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

Problem 1

A group of cyclists plan to travel a certain distance each week. If they cover 156 kilometers every week, how many kilometers will they have traveled after 6 weeks?

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

936 kilometers  

Explanation

To find the total distance traveled after 6 weeks, we multiply the distance covered each week by the number of weeks.  

 

 Distance traveled each week = 156


 Number of weeks = 6  

 

156 × 6 = 936  

 

Therefore, they will have traveled 936 kilometers.

Problem 2

In a factory, machines produce widgets in batches. Each batch contains 156 widgets. If the factory produces the first three batches in one day, how many widgets are produced that day?

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

468 widgets  

Explanation

To find the total number of widgets produced, we calculate the first three multiples of 156.

   

156 × 1 = 156  
 156 × 2 = 312  
 156 × 3 = 468  

 

   Therefore, a total of 468 widgets are produced in one day.

Problem 3

In a library, each shelf has 156 books. If there are 5 such shelves, how many books are there in total in the library?

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

780 books  
 

Explanation

To find the total number of books, we multiply the number of books per shelf by the number of shelves.

 

 Number of shelves = 5

 
 Number of books per shelf = 156  

 

 156 × 5 = 780  

 

 Therefore, there are 780 books in total in the library.

Problem 4

A gardener plants bushes in clusters. If each cluster contains 156 bushes and there are 4 clusters in the garden, how many bushes are there in total?

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

624 bushes  

Explanation

To find the total number of bushes, we multiply the number of bushes per cluster by the number of clusters.

 

 Number of clusters = 4  


 Number of bushes per cluster = 156  

 

 156 × 4 = 624  

 

 Therefore, there are 624 bushes in total in the garden.

Problem 5

A cargo ship is transporting containers. If each container can hold 156 boxes, and the ship carries 3 containers, how many boxes are being transported?

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

468 boxes 

Explanation

To find the total number of boxes, we multiply the number of boxes per container by the number of containers.

 

   Number of containers = 3  


   Number of boxes per container = 156  

 

   156 × 3 = 468  

 

   Therefore, a total of 468 boxes are being transported.
