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 960.
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 960. Multiples of 960 are the numbers you get when you multiply 960 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself. In multiplication, a multiple of 960 can be denoted as 960 × 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 960 × 1 will give us 960 as the product. Multiples of 960 will be larger or equal to 960.
Multiples of 960 include the products of 960 and an integer. Multiples of 960 are divisible by 960 evenly. The first few multiples of 960 are given below:

Understanding the multiples of 960 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 960, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
960, 1920, 2880, 3840, and 4800 are the first five multiples of 960. When multiplying 960 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
960 + 1920 + 2880 + 3840 + 4800 = 14400
When we add the first 5 multiples of 960, the answer will be 14400.
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 960, 1920, 2880, 3840, and 4800 are the first five multiples of 960. So, let us calculate it as given below:
960 - 1920 = -960
-960 - 2880 = -3840
-3840 - 3840 = -7680
-7680 - 4800 = -12480
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 960 is -12480.
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 960 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 960 is 14400.
960 + 1920 + 2880 + 3840 + 4800 = 14400
Next, divide the sum by 5:
14400 ÷ 5 = 2880
2880 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 960.
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 960 include: 960, 1920, 2880, 3840, and 4800. Now, the product of these numbers is:
960 × 1920 × 2880 × 3840 × 4800 = 2,844,444,672,000,000
The product of the first 5 multiples of 960 is
2,844,444,672,000,000.
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 960 can fit into each of the given multiples. 960, 1920, 2880, 3840, and 4800 are the first 5 multiples of 960.
960 ÷ 960 = 1
1920 ÷ 960 = 2
2880 ÷ 960 = 3
3840 ÷ 960 = 4
4800 ÷ 960 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 960 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
While working with multiples of 960, we make common mistakes. Identifying these errors and understanding how to avoid them can be helpful. Below are some frequent mistakes and tips to avoid them:
An art gallery is hosting a series of exhibitions. Each exhibition features 960 paintings. If the gallery holds 5 exhibitions over the course of a year, how many paintings will be displayed in total?
4800 paintings
Each exhibition includes 960 paintings. To find the total number of paintings displayed over 5 exhibitions, multiply the number of paintings per exhibition by the number of exhibitions.
Paintings per exhibition = 960
Number of exhibitions = 5
960 × 5 = 4800
The total number of paintings displayed is 4800.
A publishing company prints magazines in batches. Each batch contains 960 copies. If they print in the order of the first three multiples of 960, how many copies are printed in each batch?
The first three multiples of 960 are 960, 1920, and 2880.
To find the number of copies in each batch, identify the first three multiples of 960:
960 × 1 = 960
960 × 2 = 1920
960 × 3 = 2880
Therefore, the batches contain 960, 1920, and 2880 copies respectively.
A theater has 960 seats. If each performance sells out and there are 4 performances in a week, how many tickets are sold in total?
3840 tickets
To find the total number of tickets sold, multiply the number of seats by the number of performances.
Number of seats = 960
Number of performances = 4
960 × 4 = 3840
Therefore, 3840 tickets are sold in total.
A shipping company transports goods in containers, each holding 960 units of product. If 7 containers are shipped every month, how many units are shipped in total over 6 months?
40320 units
First, calculate the number of units shipped per month, then multiply by the number of months.
Units per container = 960
Number of containers per month = 7
Number of months = 6
960 × 7 × 6 = 40320
Thus, 40320 units are shipped in total over 6 months.
A factory produces 960 gadgets every day. If the production increases over three consecutive days in the multiples of the first three multiples of 960, how many gadgets are produced over these three days?
5760 gadgets
Calculate the production for each day based on the first three multiples of 960 and add them together.
First day: 960 × 1 = 960
Second day: 960 × 2 = 1920
Third day: 960 × 3 = 2880
Total production over three days: 960 + 1920 + 2880 = 5760
Therefore, 5760 gadgets are produced over three days.
