In math, multiples are the products we get when 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 520.
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 520. Multiples of 520 are the numbers you get when you multiply 520 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 520 can be denoted as 520 × 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 520 × 1 will give us 520 as the product.
Multiples of 520 will be larger or equal to 520.
Multiples of 520 include the products of 520 and an integer. Multiples of 520 are divisible by 520 evenly. The first few multiples of 520 are given below:
TABLE OF 520 (1-10) | |
---|---|
520 x 1 = 520 |
520 x 6 = 3120 |
520 x 2 = 1040 |
520 x 7 = 3640 |
520 x 3 = 1560 |
520 x 8 = 4160 |
520 x 4 = 2080 |
520 x 9 = 4680 |

520 x 15 = 7800 |
520 x 20 = 10400 |
Now, we know the first few multiples of 520. They are 0, 520, 1040, 1560, 2080, 2600, 3120, 3640, 4160, 4680, 5200,…
Understanding the multiples of 520 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 520, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
520, 1040, 1560, 2080, and 2600 are the first five multiples of 520. When multiplying 520 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
520 + 1040 + 1560 + 2080 + 2600 = 7800
When we add the first 5 multiples of 520, the answer will be 7800.
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 520, 1040, 1560, 2080, and 2600 are the first five multiples of 520. So, let us calculate it as given below:
520 - 1040 = -520
-520 - 1560 = -2080
-2080 - 2080 = -4160
-4160 - 2600 = -6760
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 520 is -6760.
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 520, 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 520 is 7800.
520 + 1040 + 1560 + 2080 + 2600 = 7800
Next, divide the sum by 5:
7800 ÷ 5 = 1560
1560 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 520.
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 520 include: 520, 1040, 1560, 2080, and 2600. Now, the product of these numbers is:
520 × 1040 × 1560 × 2080 × 2600 = 4,484,116,480,000,000
The product of the first 5 multiples of 520 is a very large number.
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 520 can fit into each of the given multiples. 520, 1040, 1560, 2080, and 2600 are the first 5 multiples of 520.
520 ÷ 520 = 1
1040 ÷ 520 = 2
1560 ÷ 520 = 3
2080 ÷ 520 = 4
2600 ÷ 520 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 520 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.
While working with multiples of 520, 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:
In a factory, machines produce 520 widgets every hour. If the factory runs for 5 hours a day, how many widgets does it produce in a day?
2,600 widgets
Each machine produces 520 widgets per hour. If the factory operates for 5 hours, the total production in one day is calculated by multiplying the hourly production by the number of hours.
Widgets produced per hour = 520
Number of hours = 5
520 × 5 = 2,600
Therefore, the factory produces 2,600 widgets in a day.
A publishing company prints books in batches, with each batch containing 520 copies. If they print the first four multiples of 520 in one week, how many copies will they have printed?
6,240 copies
To find the total number of books printed, calculate the sum of the first four multiples of 520.
First four multiples of 520:
520 × 1 = 520
520 × 2 = 1,040
520 × 3 = 1,560
520 × 4 = 2,080
Total copies = 520 + 1,040 + 1,560 + 2,080 = 6,240
Therefore, they will have printed 6,240 copies.
A conference center has 10 meeting rooms, and each room can accommodate 520 chairs. How many chairs are available in total across all rooms?
5,200 chairs
To determine the total number of chairs, multiply the number of chairs per room by the total number of rooms.
Number of rooms = 10
Number of chairs per room = 520
520 × 10 = 5,200
Thus, there are a total of 5,200 chairs available.
Sarah is organizing a charity event where she needs to prepare gift bags. Each gift bag needs 520 items, and she plans to make 7 gift bags. How many items does she need in total?
3,640 items
The total number of items required is found by multiplying the number of items per gift bag by the total number of gift bags.
Number of gift bags = 7
Items per gift bag = 520
520 × 7 = 3,640
Sarah needs a total of 3,640 items.
In a data center, a server can handle 520 requests per minute. If the server operates continuously for 3 hours, how many requests can it handle in total?
93,600 requests
First, find the total number of minutes in 3 hours, then multiply by the number of requests per minute.
Minutes in 3 hours = 3 × 60 = 180
Requests per minute = 520
520 × 180 = 93,600
Therefore, the server can handle 93,600 requests in 3 hours.
