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 480.
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 480. Multiples of 480 are the numbers you get when you multiply 480 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself.
In multiplication, a multiple of 480 can be denoted as 480 × 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 480 × 1 will give us 480 as the product. Multiples of 480 will be larger or equal to 480.
Multiples of 480 include the products of 480 and an integer. Multiples of 480 are divisible by 480 evenly. The first few multiples of 480 are given below:
TABLE OF 480 (1-10) | |
---|---|
480 x 1 = 480 |
480 x 6 = 2880 |
480 x 2 = 960 |
480 x 7 = 3360 |
480 x 3 = 1440 |
480 x 8 = 3840 |
480 x 4 = 1920 |
480 x 9 = 4320 |
480 x 5 = 2400 |
480 x 10 = 4800 |
TABLE OF 480 (11-20) | |
---|---|
480 x 11 = 5280 |
480 x 16 = 7680 |
480 x 12 = 5760 |
480 x 17 = 8160 |
480 x 13 = 6240 |
480 x 18 = 8640 |
480 x 14 = 6720 |
480 x 19 = 9120 |
480 x 15 = 7200 |
480 x 20 = 9600 |
Now, we know the first few multiples of 480. They are 0, 480, 960, 1,440, 1,920, 2,400, 2,880, 3,360, 3,840, 4,320, 4,800,...
Understanding the multiples of 480 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 480, we need to apply them to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
480, 960, 1,440, 1,920, and 2,400 are the first five multiples of 480. When multiplying 480 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
480 + 960 + 1,440 + 1,920 + 2,400 = 7,200
When we add the first 5 multiples of 480, the answer will be 7,200.
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 480, 960, 1,440, 1,920, and 2,400 are the first five multiples of 480. So, let us calculate it as given below:
480 - 960 = -480
-480 - 1,440 = -1,920
-1,920 - 1,920 = -3,840
-3,840 - 2,400 = -6,240
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 480 is -6,240.
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 480 and then divide it by the count, i.e., 5. Since 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 480 is 7,200.
480 + 960 + 1,440 + 1,920 + 2,400 = 7,200
Next, divide the sum by 5:
7,200 ÷ 5 = 1,440
1,440 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 480.
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 480 include: 480, 960, 1,440, 1,920, and 2,400. Now, the product of these numbers is:
480 × 960 × 1,440 × 1,920 × 2,400 = 8,294,400,000,000
The product of the first 5 multiples of 480 is 8,294,400,000,000.
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 480 can fit into each of the given multiples. 480, 960, 1,440, 1,920, and 2,400 are the first 5 multiples of 480.
480 ÷ 480 = 1
960 ÷ 480 = 2
1,440 ÷ 480 = 3
1,920 ÷ 480 = 4
2,400 ÷ 480 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 480 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
