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 42.
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 42. Multiples of 42 are the numbers you get when you multiply 42 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself.
In multiplication, a multiple of 42 can be denoted as 42 × 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 42 × 1 will give us 42 as the product. Multiples of 42 will be larger or equal to 42.
Multiples of 42 include the products of 42 and an integer. Multiples of 42 are divisible by 42 evenly. The first few multiples of 42 are given below:
TABLE OF 42 (1-10) | |
---|---|
42 x 1 = 42 |
42 x 6 = 252 |
42 x 2 = 84 |
42 x 7 = 294 |
42 x 3 = 126 |
42 x 8 = 336 |
42 x 4 = 168 |
42 x 9 = 378 |
42 x 5 = 210 |
42 x 10 = 420 |
TABLE OF 42 (11-20) | |
---|---|
42 x 11 = 462 |
42 x 16 = 672 |
42 x 12 = 504 |
42 x 17 = 714 |
42 x 13 = 546 |
42 x 18 = 756 |
42 x 14 = 588 |
42 x 19 = 798 |
42 x 15 = 630 |
42 x 20 = 840 |
Now, we know the first few multiples of 42. They are 0, 42, 84, 126, 168, 210, 252, 294, 336, 378, 420,...
Understanding the multiples of 42 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with Multiples of 42, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
42, 84, 126, 168, and 210 are the first five multiples of 42. When multiplying 42 from 1 to 5 we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
42 + 84 + 126 + 168 + 210 = 630
When we add the first 5 multiples of 42, the answer will be 630.
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 42, 84, 126, 168, and 210 are the first five multiples of 42. So, let us calculate it as given below:
42 - 84 = -42
-42 - 126 = -168
-168 - 168 = -336
-336 - 210 = -546
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 42 is -546.
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 42, 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 42 is 630.
42 + 84 + 126 + 168 + 210 = 630
Next, divide the sum by 5:
630 ÷ 5 = 126
126 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 42.
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 42 include: 42, 84, 126, 168, and 210. Now, the product of these numbers is:
42 × 84 × 126 × 168 × 210 = 311,875,200
The product of the first 5 multiples of 42 is 311,875,200.
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 42 can fit into each of the given multiples. 42, 84, 126, 168, and 210 are the first 5 multiples of 42.
42 ÷ 42 = 1
84 ÷ 42 = 2
126 ÷ 42 = 3
168 ÷ 42 = 4
210 ÷ 42 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 42 are 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
