Advance Topics

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 8.

What are the Multiples of 8?

Now, let us learn more about multiples of 8. Multiples of 8 are the numbers you get when you multiply 8 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 8 can be denoted as 8 x n, where n represents any whole number (0, 1, 2, 3,…). So, we can summarize that:

 

Multiple of a number =  Number x Any whole number


For example, multiplying 8 x 1 , will give us 8 as the product. Multiples of 8 will be larger or equal to 8.

List of First 20 Multiples of 8

Multiples of 8 include the products of 8 and an integer. Multiples of 8 are divisible by 8 evenly. The first few multiples of 8 are given below:

 

TABLE OF 8 (1-10)

8 x 1 = 8

8 x 6 = 48

8 x 2 = 16

8 x 7 = 56

8 x 3 = 24

8 x 8 = 64

8 x 4 = 32

8 x 9 = 72

8 x 5 = 40

8 x 10 = 80

 

TABLE OF 8 (11-20)

8 x 11 = 88

8 x 16 = 128

8 x 12 = 96

8 x 17 = 136

8 x 13 = 104

8 x 18 = 144

8 x 14 = 112

8 x 19 = 152

8 x 15 = 120

8 x 20 = 160

 

Now, we know the first few multiples of 8. They are, 0, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80,...

Operations with Multiples of 8

Understanding the multiples of 8 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with Multiples of 8, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. 


Sum of first 5 Multiples of 8: The first 5 multiples of 8 include 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40. These are the products we get when multiplying 8 from 1 to 5 .So, the sum of these multiples is:


 8 + 16 + 24 + 32 + 40 = 120


When we add the first 5 multiples of 8 we will get 120.  


Subtraction of first 5 Multiples of 8: While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. The first 5 multiples of 8 are 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40. So, let us calculate it as given below:

 

  • 8 - 16 = -8
  • -8 - 24 = -32
  • -32 - 32 = -64
  • -64 - 40 = -104
  •  

Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 8 is -104.

 


Average of first 5 Multiples of 8: To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 8, and then divide it by the count, i.e., 5. Because there are 5 multiples are 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 8 is 120.


8 + 16 + 24 + 32 + 40 = 120


Next, divide the sum by 5:


120 / 5 = 24


24 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 8.


Product of First 5 Multiples of 8: The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 8 include: 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40. Now, the product of these numbers is:


8 x16 x 24 x 32 x 40=3,932,160


The product of the first 5 multiples of 8 is 3,932,160.


Division of First 5 Multiples of 8: While we perform division, we get to know how many times 8 can fit into each of the given multiples. 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40 are the first 5 multiples of 8.

 

  • 8 ÷8= 1   
  • 16 ÷8= 2  
  • 24 ÷8= 3    
  • 32 ÷8= 4
  • 40 ÷8= 5

     

The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 8 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
