Multiples of 131
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 131.
What are the Multiples of 131?
Now, let us learn more about multiples of 131. Multiples of 131 are the numbers you get when you multiply 131 by any whole number, including zero. Each number has an infinite number of multiples, including a multiple of itself.
In multiplication, a multiple of 131 can be denoted as 131 × 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 131 × 1 will give us 131 as the product. Multiples of 131 will be larger or equal to 131.

Operations with Multiples of 131
Understanding the multiples of 131 helps solve mathematical problems and boost our multiplication and division skills. When working with multiples of 131, we need to apply it to different mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
Sum of first 5 Multiples of 131:
131, 262, 393, 524, and 655 are the first five multiples of 131. When multiplying 131 from 1 to 5, we get these numbers as the products.
So, the sum of these multiples is:
131 + 262 + 393 + 524 + 655 = 1965
When we add the first 5 multiples of 131, the answer will be 1965.
Subtraction of first 5 Multiples of 131:
While we do subtraction, it improves our comprehension of how the value decreases when each multiple is subtracted from the previous one. 131, 262, 393, 524, and 655 are the first five multiples of 131. So, let us calculate it as given below:
131 - 262 = -131
-131 - 393 = -524
-524 - 524 = -1048
-1048 - 655 = -1703
Hence, the result of subtracting the first 5 multiples of 131 is -1703.
Average of first 5 Multiples of 131:
To calculate the average, we need to identify the sum of the first 5 multiples of 131 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 131 is 1965.
131 + 262 + 393 + 524 + 655 = 1965
Next, divide the sum by 5:
1965 ÷ 5 = 393
393 is the average of the first 5 multiples of 131.
Product of First 5 Multiples of 131:
The product of given numbers is the result of multiplying all of them together. Here, the first 5 multiples of 131 include: 131, 262, 393, 524, and 655. Now, the product of these numbers is:
131 × 262 × 393 × 524 × 655 = 22,460,789,060
The product of the first 5 multiples of 131 is 22,460,789,060.
Division of First 5 Multiples of 131:
While we perform division, we get to know how many times 131 can fit into each of the given multiples. 131, 262, 393, 524, and 655 are the first 5 multiples of 131.
131 ÷ 131 = 1
262 ÷ 131 = 2
393 ÷ 131 = 3
524 ÷ 131 = 4
655 ÷ 131 = 5
The results of dividing the first 5 multiples of 131 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5.

Multiples of 131 Examples
Problem 1
In a library, there are multiple sections dedicated to different genres. Each section can hold 131 books. If three new sections are added, how many books in total can these new sections hold?
393 books
Explanation
Each new section holds 131 books. To find the total number of books in these new sections, we multiply the number of sections by the number of books each section can hold.
Number of new sections = 3
Books per section = 131
(131 times 3 = 393)
Therefore, the new sections can hold a total of 393 books.
Problem 2
A theater group is planning to perform in different cities. They have 131 seats in the theater per performance. If they perform in 5 cities, how many seats are available in total for all performances?
655 seats
Explanation
Each performance has 131 seats available. To determine the total number of seats for all performances, multiply the number of performances by the number of seats.
Number of performances = 5
Seats per performance = 131
(131 times 5 = 655)
Thus, there are 655 seats available for all performances.
Problem 3
A farmer has divided his land into plots, each plot being exactly 131 square meters. If he owns 7 such plots, what is the total area of his land?
917 square meters
Explanation
Each plot is 131 square meters. To find the total area, multiply the number of plots by the area of each plot.
Number of plots = 7
Area of each plot = 131 square meters
(131 times 7 = 917)
Therefore, the total area of the land is 917 square meters.
Problem 4
A company produces batches of products, with each batch containing 131 units. How many units are produced if the company completes 4 batches?
524 units
Explanation
Each batch contains 131 units. To find the total number of units produced, multiply the number of batches by the units per batch.
Number of batches = 4
Units per batch = 131
(131 times 4 = 524)
Hence, the company produces 524 units in total.
Problem 5
A concert hall has 131 lights installed in each row. If there are 6 rows, how many lights are there in total?
786 lights
Explanation
Each row contains 131 lights. To calculate the total number of lights, multiply the number of rows by the lights per row.
Number of rows = 6
Lights per row = 131
(131 times 6 = 786)
Therefore, there are 786 lights in total in the concert hall.
