4 Times Table Examples
Problem 1
If there are 4 tables, which can seat 8 people in one table. How many people can be accommodated in all the tables?
Number of tables = 4
The number of people one table can accommodate = 8
Number of people 8 tables can accommodate = Number of tables x The number of people one table can accommodate.
= 4 x 8
= 32.
Answer: 32 people can be accommodated in 8 tables.
Explanation
The total number of people that can be accommodated is the number of tables multiplied by the number of people one table can accommodate, 4 x 8. The answer is 32.
Problem 2
If 4 tires are to be fitted to a car and one tire fitting takes 13 minutes. How much time will it take to fit all the 4 tires?
Number of tires = 4
Time taken to fit one tire = 13
Time taken to fit all the tires = Number of tires x Time taken to fit one tire
= 4 x 13
= 52.
Answer: 52 Minutes
Explanation
The time taken to fit all tires is the number of tires multiplied by the time to fit one tire, 4 x 13. The answer is 52.
Problem 3
How many minutes are there in 4 hours?
Minutes in one hour = 60 minutes
Total number of hours = 4
Total minutes in 4 hours = Total number of hours x Minutes in one hour
= 4 x 60
= 240.
Answer: 240 minutes are there in 4 hours.
Explanation
Total minutes in 4 hours is 4 hours multiplied by the number of minutes in one hour, 4 x 60. The answer is 240.
