Question

Write the first five multiples of the following number $70$.

Answer 1

Hint: To solve this question you need to know the concept of multiples of a certain number. Multiples of any number are obtained by multiplying other numbers together. For the first five multiples of the number, the given number will be multiplied to the first five positive integers from $1$ to $5$.

Complete step-by-step solution:
The question asks you to find the first five multiples of the number $70$. To find the multiples you will firstly find the product of the $1$ and the given number, $70$. On writing it mathematically we get:
$\Rightarrow 70\times 1$
As, we know that the number on being multiplied results in the number itself. So the product becomes:
$=70$
Similarly, we will get the other four multiples by multiplying the number $70$ to $2$, $3$ , $4$ and $5$ respectively.
Starting with multiplying $2$ with $70$, we get:
$= 70\times 2$
On multiplication the product we get is:
$= 140$
Multiplying the number $3$ with $70$ to get the third multiple, we get:
$= 70\times 3$
On multiplication the product we get is:
$= 210$
Multiplying the number $4$ with $70$ to get the fourth multiple. Mathematically it is written as: $= 70\times 4$
On multiplication the product we get is:
$= 280$
Lastly we will multiply $5$ with $70$ to get the fifth multiple. Mathematically it is written as:
$= 70\times 5$
On multiplication the product we get is:
$= 350$
$\therefore $ The first five multiples of the number $70$ are $70,140,210,280$ and $350$ .

Note: We can recheck whether the answer is correct or not. To do so we will divide each of the multiples which are $70,140,210,280$ and $350$ with the given number$70$. If the numbers in the answer give zero as the remainder then the numbers are multiple of the number $70$. Dividing each numbers by $70$ we get:
$\Rightarrow 70=70\times 1+0$
$\Rightarrow 140=70\times 2+0$
$\Rightarrow 210=70\times 3+0$
$\Rightarrow 280=70\times 4+0$
$\Rightarrow 350=70\times 5+0$
Since all the numbers give zero as the remainder on being divided by $70$, so these are the multiples of $70$.
