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 24.
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 24. Multiples of 24 are the numbers you get when you multiply 24 by any whole number, along with zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself. In multiplication, a multiple of 24 can be denoted as 24 × 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 24 × 1 will give us 24 as the product. Multiples of 24 will be larger or equal to 24.
Multiples of 24 include the products of 24 and an integer. Multiples of 24 are divisible by 24 evenly. The first few multiples of 24 are given below:
TABLE OF 24 (1-10) | |
---|---|
24 x 1 = 24 |
24 x 6 = 144 |
24 x 2 = 48 |
24 x 7 = 168 |
24 x 3 = 72 |
24 x 8 = 192 |
24 x 4 = 96 |
24 x 9 = 216 |
24 x 5 = 120 |
24 x 10 = 240 |
TABLE OF 24 (11-20) | |
---|---|
24 x 11 = 264 |
24 x 16 = 384 |
24 x 12 = 288 |
24 x 17 = 408 |
24 x 13 = 312 |
24 x 18 = 432 |
24 x 14 = 336 |
24 x 19 = 456 |
24 x 15 = 360 |
24 x 20 = 480 |
Now, we know the first few multiples of 24. They are 0, 24, 48, 72, 96, 120, 144, 168, 192, 216, 240,...
Understanding the multiples of 24 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 24, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 are the first five multiples of 24. When multiplying 24 from 1 to 5 we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
24 + 48 + 72 + 96 + 120 = 360
When we add the first 5 multiples of 24, the answer will be 360.
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 are the first five multiples of 24. So, let us calculate it as given below:
24 - 48 = -24
-24 - 72 = -96
-96 - 96 = -192
-192 - 120 = -312
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 24 is -312.
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 24, 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 24 is 360.
24 + 48 + 72 + 96 + 120 = 360
Next, divide the sum by 5:
360 ÷ 5 = 72
72 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 24.
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 24 include: 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120. Now, the product of these numbers is:
24 × 48 × 72 × 96 × 120 = 19,916,832,000
The product of the first 5 multiples of 24 is 19,916,832,000.
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 24 can fit into each of the given multiples. 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 are the first 5 multiples of 24.
24 ÷ 24 = 1
48 ÷ 24 = 2
72 ÷ 24 = 3
96 ÷ 24 = 4
120 ÷ 24 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 24 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
