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 54.
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 54. Multiples of 54 are the numbers you get when you multiply 54 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself. In multiplication, a multiple of 54 can be denoted as 54 × 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 54 × 1 will give us 54 as the product.
Multiples of 54 will be larger or equal to 54.
Multiples of 54 include the products of 54 and an integer. Multiples of 54 are divisible by 54 evenly. The first few multiples of 54 are given below:
TABLE OF 54 (1-10) | |
---|---|
54 x 1 = 54 |
54 x 6 = 324 |
54 x 2 = 108 |
54 x 7 = 378 |
54 x 3 = 162 |
54 x 8 = 432 |
54 x 4 = 216 |
54 x 9 = 486 |
54 x 5 = 270 |
54 x 10 = 540 |
TABLE OF 54 (11-20) | |
---|---|
54 x 11 = 594 |
54 x 16 = 864 |
54 x 12 = 648 |
54 x 17 = 918 |
54 x 13 = 702 |
54 x 18 = 972 |
54 x 14 = 756 |
54 x 19 = 1026 |
54 x 15 = 810 |
54 x 20 = 1080 |
Now, we know the first few multiples of 54. They are 0, 54, 108, 162, 216, 270, 324, 378, 432, 486, 540,...
Understanding the multiples of 54 helps solve mathematical problems and boosts our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 54, we need to apply them to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
54, 108, 162, 216, and 270 are the first five multiples of 54. When multiplying 54 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
54 + 108 + 162 + 216 + 270 = 810
When we add the first 5 multiples of 54, the answer will be 810.
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 54, 108, 162, 216, and 270 are the first five multiples of 54. So, let us calculate it as given below:
54 - 108 = -54
-54 - 162 = -216
-216 - 216 = -432
-432 - 270 = -702
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 54 is -702.
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 54, 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 54 is 810.
54 + 108 + 162 + 216 + 270 = 810
Next, divide the sum by 5:
810 ÷ 5 = 162
162 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 54.
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 54 include 54, 108, 162, 216, and 270. Now, the product of these numbers is:
54 × 108 × 162 × 216 × 270 = 5,976,116,640
The product of the first 5 multiples of 54 is 5,976,116,640.
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 54 can fit into each of the given multiples. 54, 108, 162, 216, and 270 are the first 5 multiples of 54.
54 ÷ 54 = 1
108 ÷ 54 = 2
162 ÷ 54 = 3
216 ÷ 54 = 4
270 ÷ 54 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 54 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
While working with multiples of 54, 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 farmer is growing rows of corn in his field. Each row contains 54 corn plants. If he plants 54 corn plants in each row every week, how many corn plants will he have after 6 weeks?
324 corn plants
Each week he plants 54 corn plants. To find the total number of corn plants after 6 weeks, we multiply 54 by 6.
Corn plants planted each week = 54
Number of weeks = 6
54 × 6 = 324
He will have 324 corn plants after 6 weeks.
In a music school, there are three levels of classes. The beginner class has students learning the first multiple of 54 songs, the intermediate class the second multiple, and the advanced class the third multiple. How many songs are taught in each class?
The first three multiples of 54 are 54, 108, and 162. The beginner class learns 54 songs, the intermediate class learns 108 songs, and the advanced class learns 162 songs.
We identify the first three multiples of 54:
54 × 1 = 54
54 × 2 = 108
54 × 3 = 162
Thus, the beginner class learns 54 songs, the intermediate class 108 songs, and the advanced class 162 songs.
A new office building has 6 floors, and each floor has 54 workstations. How many workstations are there in total in the building?
324 workstations
To find the total number of workstations, we multiply the number of floors by the number of workstations on each floor.
Number of floors = 6
Number of workstations on each floor = 54
6 × 54 = 324
Therefore, there are a total of 324 workstations in the building.
A stadium has 9 sections, and each section has 54 seats. How many seats are there in total in the stadium?
486 seats
To find the total number of seats, we multiply the number of sections by the number of seats in each section.
Number of sections = 9
Number of seats in each section = 54
9 × 54 = 486
Thus, there are 486 seats in total in the stadium.
Maya has a collection of 54 stamps in one album, 108 stamps in another album, and 162 stamps in a third album. How many stamps does she have in total in all three albums?
324 stamps
The first album has 54 stamps, the second has 108 stamps, and the third has 162 stamps. To find the total number of stamps:
54 + 108 + 162 = 324
Therefore, Maya has a total of 324 stamps in all three albums.
