Multiples of 47
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 47.
What are the Multiples of 47?
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 47. Multiples of 47 are the numbers you get when you multiply 47 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself.
In multiplication, a multiple of 47 can be denoted as 47 × 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 47 × 1 will give us 47 as the product. Multiples of 47 will be larger or equal to 47.

Operations with Multiples of 47
Understanding the multiples of 47 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 47, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Sum of first 5 Multiples of 47:
47, 94, 141, 188, and 235 are the first five multiples of 47. When multiplying 47 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
47 + 94 + 141 + 188 + 235 = 705
When we add the first 5 multiples of 47, the answer will be 705.
Subtraction of first 5 Multiples of 47:
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 47, 94, 141, 188, and 235 are the first five multiples of 47. So, let us calculate it as given below:
47 - 94 = -47
-47 - 141 = -188
-188 - 188 = -376
-376 - 235 = -611
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 47 is -611.
Average of first 5 Multiples of 47:
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 47 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 47 is 705.
47 + 94 + 141 + 188 + 235 = 705
Next, divide the sum by 5:
705 ÷ 5 = 141
141 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 47.
Product of First 5 Multiples of 47:
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 47 include: 47, 94, 141, 188, and 235. Now, the product of these numbers is:
47 × 94 × 141 × 188 × 235 = 6,187,051,480
The product of the first 5 multiples of 47 is 6,187,051,480.
Division of First 5 Multiples of 47:
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 47 can fit into each of the given multiples. 47, 94, 141, 188, and 235 are the first 5 multiples of 47.
47 ÷ 47 = 1
94 ÷ 47 = 2
141 ÷ 47 = 3
188 ÷ 47 = 4
235 ÷ 47 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 47 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Multiples of 47 Examples
Problem 1
In a music club, each member practices for 47 minutes every week. If there are 6 members in the club, how many total minutes of practice does the club accumulate over a month (4 weeks)?
1,128 minutes
Explanation
Each member practices for 47 minutes per week. To find the total practice time for the club over 4 weeks, we calculate:
Minutes per member per week = 47
Number of members = 6
Number of weeks = 4
Total minutes = 47 × 6 × 4 = 1,128
Therefore, the club accumulates 1,128 minutes of practice over a month.
Problem 2
A local bakery bakes 47 cookies each day to sell at the market. How many cookies will they bake in the first three days of the week?
141 cookies
Explanation
The bakery bakes 47 cookies each day. To find out how many cookies they bake in three days, we multiply the daily output by the number of days:
Cookies per day = 47
Number of days = 3
47 × 3 = 141
Thus, they will bake a total of 141 cookies in the first three days.
Problem 3
A company manufactures 47 gadgets every hour. If they operate for 8 hours a day, how many gadgets are produced in a single day?
376 gadgets
Explanation
To find the total number of gadgets produced in a day, multiply the number of gadgets produced per hour by the number of hours they operate:
Gadgets per hour = 47
Number of hours per day = 8
47 × 8 = 376
So, 376 gadgets are produced in a single day.
Problem 4
During a city cleanup event, volunteers collected trash in bags, with each bag weighing 47 pounds. If they collected 5 bags each day, how much trash did they collect over a 7-day period?
1,645 pounds
Explanation
To find the total weight of trash collected, multiply the weight of each bag by the number of bags per day and the number of days:
Weight per bag = 47 pounds
Bags per day = 5
Number of days = 7
47 × 5 × 7 = 1,645
Therefore, the volunteers collected 1,645 pounds of trash over 7 days.
Problem 5
A gardener plants 47 seeds in each section of the garden. If there are 3 sections, how many seeds are planted in total?
141 seeds
Explanation
To find the total number of seeds planted, multiply the number of seeds per section by the number of sections:
Seeds per section = 47
Number of sections = 3
47 × 3 = 141
Thus, a total of 141 seeds are planted in the garden.
